DEF into Diesel Engine

Keep draining, replace filters ASAP.

 

You might get by with changing the filter a few times.

What town are you near?
What truck and motor?

 

Do not run the truck!!!!!! Tow bill will be cheaper. If DEF gets to the engine you'll most likely be replacing the entire fuel system. If you can disconnect the contaminated tank and just run off the good one until you get the tank flushed out.

Sounds like it may be too late.

WIF means it made it to the filters. Get the system flushed ASAP and pray for no long term damage.

 

Siler City? If so I know a guy not to far from you, but I don’t know if he works on trucks that new. I can pm his number if you want.

 

Shut off engine on flat surface. Let it sit for 30 minutes. Open drain plug on the tank bottom to drain DEF and water in bucket. Change filters. Torque drain plug when you done.

 

Maybe of you can change the filters or the boss could have someone change them. The water separator filter is designed for that. Or keep try raining the water out of bottom of filter. If I t has has that kind of filter.

 

Traditional fuel filters do not have the ability to seporate DEF from the fuel. Some of the DEF stays suspended in the Fuel. It will not all stay in the water seporator.

Take suspect contaminated Diesel and poor it on a concrete floor. When the fuel evaporates you will see the crystals from the DEF.

Best dump the whole batch. And now that its been driven its mixed in both tanks no doubt.
Crap takes forever to clean.
