AdBlue Contamination

In Kent we have encountered more and more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partly thanks to people not being aware of the right way to use it (note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to each other on the car.

Now, what exactly is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

Any time you find yourself in this situation do not panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination service. Our experts have the technical competence and working experience to get you back on the road promptly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally a significant matter to handle in a vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in the diesel or petrol will often result in idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed effectively, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both circumstances pretty swiftly.

Take note though that as long as the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will probably be wholly wet and useless.
