We are willing to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Wandsworth we are identifying progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of motorists not knowing the right way to to make use of (remember: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to one another on the automobile.

Now, what's the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel will often cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both situations rather quickly.

Be aware that any time the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will undoubtedly be completely wet and ineffective.
