AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Hammersmith and Fulham we are identifying more and more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly stemming from drivers being unsure of the way to to make use of (important: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to one another on the car.

Now, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing that the product is predominantly ionised water, it's just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out immediately. And of course don't start up the motor - not even to relocate it into a parking place. In the event that you have started the vehicle you may probably have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important condition to take care of in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel tank is likely to contribute to idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both situations very easily.

Keep in mind though that so long as the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will probably be completely water-logged and unusable.
