Our Areas of Experience :

Do you or your drivers often misfuel your car? We can fix any related issues.

AdBlue Contamination

In Kent we are identifying a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is mainly a result of people being unsure of the right way to to make use of (important: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to one another on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Since AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Additionally, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out immediately. And of course do not turn over the vehicle - not even to maneuver it to a parking place. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you will probably need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a significant situation to take care of in an automobile - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank can certainly cause idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both circumstances very swiftly.

You should know though that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will likely be wholly water-logged and ineffective.
