AdBlue Contamination
All around Lancashire we are noticing an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly stemming from people not being totally sure the way to work with it (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to each other on the vehicle.
Now, what exactly is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.
Phone us if it turns out you have suffered from AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can take care of all types of AdBlue contamination.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant condition to take care of in an automobile - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol may lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with fully, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both cases rather swiftly.
Take note though that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and useless.
