The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue Contamination

All around Hampshire we have found more and more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly thanks to people not knowing the right way to to make use of (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to one another on the car.

So, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Seeing as AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. In case you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out immediately. And of course do not switch on the vehicle - not even to relocate it from the pump. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you may likely need to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

It truly was the graveyard shift. It was roughly 2am and nobody was about. It had become rather dead thus far, and me and Brian were sitting around perusing several old articles. That was an uncommon restful time in Hampshire. It was in fact so relaxing that when the telephone finally rang it made me start! The customer on the other end said: "I concluded my evening shift and stupidly poured petrol in the mustard yellow Chrysler Voyager". I told him to inform us where exactly he was situated and we headed out, getting to him in Old Shirley only an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was removed from the car. He said many thanks for getting there so fast. As we were heading back to base we noticed two young ladies at the edge of the street who seemed like they suffered a flat tyre. So we got out to help them change it, much to their delight.
