AdBlue In your Fuel

In Dumfries and Galloway we are encountering a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to some extent a result of motorists not being aware of the right way to work with it (remember: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to one another on the vehicle.

So, what exactly is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is incredibly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue in a fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And most certainly be careful not to turn over the vehicle - not even to move it away from the pump. If you did start the car you would probably have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally a significant situation to take care of in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in diesel or petrol may result in idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed properly, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both cases very swiftly.

Take note though that whenever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel in Car Castle Douglas - Castle Douglas Fuel Rescue

I had enjoyed a perfect evening fishing during my day off and was feeling pleased with myself the following morning as I was en route to assist a young couple vacationing in Castle Douglas. They stopped after putting diesel into their Honda, and were around half an hour's drive away. I emerged at their position and smiled while I listened to the gal telling her man off for being so foolish. "How could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I wanted to explain that this kind of thing goes on on a regular basis in Dumfries and Galloway and that it's truly nothing at all to be anxious about, nevertheless he all the same had an earful by his missus. I felt genuine sympathy for the lad. At any rate, I removed the wrong fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the correct fuel. While watching them drive down the road I waved good bye and pondered on what my wife would do to me in the event that I made the very same error... I'd personally under no circumstances live it down!
