AdBlue Contamination

In Herefordshire we are identifying a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a consequence of motorists not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (pay attention: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly close to each other on the car.

So, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out at once. And absolutely take care not to start the car - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. In case you have started the car you may probably need to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant issue to address in a car - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel may produce idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with properly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both situations fairly swiftly.

Take note though that any time the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will be totally wet and useless.
