AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Berkshire we have encountered more and more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partly caused by motorists not being totally sure the way to use it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to each other on the vehicle.

So, what exactly is the situation with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? As the product is primarily ionised water, it is actually just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Furthermore, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And most definitely never turn over the vehicle - not even to move it off the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system purged and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant issue to address in a vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in fuel can certainly cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both circumstances quite simply.

You should know that as long as the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will likely be wholly wet and useless.
