AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Cambridgeshire we are identifying an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of drivers not understanding the way to to make use of (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to one another on the automobile.

Well, what's the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition to this, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And definitely be careful not to switch on the car - not even to move it to a parking bay. If you did start the vehicle you may likely have to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally a significant situation to take care of in a car - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel may trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out properly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both situations fairly swiftly.

Bear in mind though that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel.

Fuel Drain Whittlesey - Whittlesey Petrol in Diesel

I'd had a perfect day golfing during my off day and was feeling contented with myself the following morning as I set off to assist a new family holidaying in Whittlesey. They had stopped after putting the wrong fuel into their Suzuki, and were about half an hour away. I turned up at their position and laughed to myself while I listened to the girl telling her man off for turning out to be so daft. "Exactly how could you conceivably find a way to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I tried to explain that this situation happens constantly in Cambridgeshire and that it's absolutely nothing to be concerned about, nevertheless he in spite of everything had his ear bent. Poor boy. Anyways, I cleaned up and removed all the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and gave them some proper fuel. While they drove away I waved good bye and considered what my missus would say to me if ever I made the exact same mistake... I would under no circumstances hear the end of it!
