AdBlue and Water Contamination

Other than wrong fuel, water can also cause same symptoms, such as the production of a lot of smoke, a rough running of the engine, indications of no power and stalling. Hence you should also suspect it. But you should also remember that water can cause other serious damages like damage to fuel filters.

Yet another thing which can cause same symptoms is putting AdBlue directly into the fuel tank. AdBlue contamination can also take place if it is used by someone who has no knowledge on how or where it should be added. Therefore, it should only be used by someone who is aware that it should be added to its own tank rather than being added directly to the fuel.

In these situations, we can provide the services of draining the fuel, flushing the engine and refilling with clean fuel, like in the case of filling your tank with the wrong fuel.

It was just after 9 pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless day, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were seated commenting on the recent sports results, ready for the next telephone call for the day to come in. Eventually we had a call from a young lady on a company expedition who had pulled into the BP filling station and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Reading Street rental by mistake. The unfortunate lady was pretty irritated apparently, crying "I still can't believe that I've ruined the car! I am so used to filling my petrol car I totally did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I advised her to relax and not to be concerned, plus that these things unfortunately do happen. She managed to move the car into a protected spot and, seeing as it was only a few miles away from where we were, we were able to arrive at the customer without delay. The bad fuel was extracted and she could get back to the hotel she was residing in. Despite the fact we got extremely soaked, it was all worthwhile to see her drive away contented and not so apprehensive. A fuel drain well done in my books!
