AdBlue is a water-based fluid, uses specifically in diesel vehicles equipped with Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) technology, and it is strictly not fuel or additive. It is simply a diesel exhaust fluid (DEF) to convert harmful gases into water and nitrogen.
AdBlue is corrosive liquid and has detergent and crystallization properties. This can have various devastating effects on your car’s engine and fuel assembly, such as;
1. Damaging the fuel lines, and especially the fuel pump by clogging the small inlets and valves.
2. As it gets crystallized, it can clog and damage the fuel filter, and fuel injectors as well. This can hamper the performance and fuel economy of the car.
3. As it decomposes the lubricants and other protective layers inside the engine, it can increase friction and heat generation, damaging the engine beyond repair.
