AdBlue In Diesel
In Kent we are noticing progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly caused by drivers not knowing the right way to to make use of (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly close to one another on the automobile.
So, precisely what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Since the product is mainly ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.
If perhaps you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it right away. And most definitely take care not to crank the vehicle - not even to shift it away from the pump. In the event that you did start the car you may almost certainly need to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious matter to address in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel may result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both cases very swiftly.
Be aware however that in the event that the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.
