The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Hertfordshire we are identifying increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partly as a consequence of motorists not being totally sure how to use it (take note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right close to one another on the automobile.

Well, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Because AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And of course do not crank the vehicle - not even to relocate it to a parking area. In the event that you did start the car you may in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Phone us in the event that you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can easily correct every type of AdBlue fluid contamination.

I punched her location into the Satnav and arrived within 60 minutes. I arrived at the destination and extracted the wrong fuel out of the car.

I completed the job and she presented me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. What a pleasant Hertfordshire lady!
