AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Gloucestershire we have found a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is partly due to motorists not being aware of the way to to make use of (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right close to one another on the car.

Now, what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

Give us a call in the event that you have experienced AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to attend to all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually an important issue to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel can easily contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both cases rather swiftly.

Take note though that whenever the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will be thoroughly wet and useless.
