Stupid idea. These catalyst systems are extremely strict about how pure the DEF must be. If it detects impurities in the DEF, it'll first derate, and eventually shut down, the engine. Then, the DEF tank, DEF doser, and all DEF lines will have to be removed and thoroughly cleaned out (in the case of the lines and the tank, they'll probably just be replaced outright). The DEF doser will have to be cleaned out and possibly replaced, then all that has to be reinstalled.

What happens when you put Diesel Exhaust Fluid into the tank of a gasoline engine?

Considering that the fluid is an aqueous urea solution made with 32.5% high-purity urea and 67.5% deionized water it would not be a good idea to put it in the fuel tank of a gasoline engine. Nothing good would happen and lots of bad things will happen. Adding to this one... at no point does DEF ever go through the engine in a diesel, either. Exhaust first goes through the outlet into the Diesel Particulate Filter. Then it exits the DPF, and goes through a crossover pipe into the DEF doser. It is at this point that the DEF is sprayed into the exhaust, and, from there, it goes through the SCR catalyst then into the atmosphere. When we service or repair a DEF system, if you get any DEF on any tools with moving parts (such as ratchets), it must be washed off thoroughly right away, before it crystalizes, or else it will cause your tools to seize up. Now think about how many moving parts are in an engine.

Where is 2001 Chevy venture rear winshield fluid?

There is only one tank for windshield wiper fluid in the 2001 venture. The tank actually has two pump mounted in it. The one for the rear window is mounted higher than the one for the front, so check the level in the fluid tank first. If the tank is full and you still do not get fluid to the rear, check the pump and then the "plumbing" going to the back of the van. Good Luck, Greg

How do you replace a windshield washer fluid pump on a 1992 Volvo wagon?

Open your hood and find the windshield wiper fluid tank and drain it. The pump is located on the side of the fluid tank and is plugged in. Remove the plug and the pump output first. Pull the windshield washer fluid pump out of the tank and replace it with the new one. Hook the electric connection and the pump output and refill your fluid tank.
