AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Waltham Forest we are discovering an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly a result of people not knowing how to to make use of (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to one another on the automobile.

Well, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Since the product is primarily ionised water, it is like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And certainly don't turn over the engine - not even to maneuver it into a parking area. In the instance that you did start the car you will almost certainly have to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a significant issue to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Having water in your petrol or diesel will likely lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both situations very simply.

You should know that any time the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will likely be wholly wet and unusable.

Wrong Fuel Walthamstow - Walthamstow Wrong Fuel in Car

I had appreciated a wonderful afternoon fishing on my holiday and was feeling cheerful with myself the next working day as I headed out to aid a new couple who were on vacation in Walthamstow. They pulled over after putting the wrong fuel into their Ford, and were around an hour's drive away. I got there at their location and laughed to myself while I heard to the girl telling her partner off for being so daft. "Just how could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I wanted to clarify that this problem occurs constantly in Waltham Forest and that it's nothing to fret about, nevertheless he still had an earful by his better half. Unfortunate chap. Anyhow, I drained out the polluted fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled them up with the proper fuel. Watching them drive off I waved bon voyage and considered what my wife would say to me in the event that I made the same error... I would under no circumstances hear the end of it!
