This is what we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Surrey we are noticing progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to some extent thanks to drivers being unsure of the way to work with it (important: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Because AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out right away. And definitely don't start the car - not even to move it into a parking place. Assuming you did start the vehicle you would very likely need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a serious condition to deal with in an automobile - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank may cause idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed effectively, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both circumstances rather swiftly.

Take note that in the event that the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and useless.

Wrong Fuel in Car Burntcommon, Surrey

Wrong Fuel Burntcommon - Burntcommon Wrong Fuel Drain

I had enjoyed a wonderful afternoon fishing on my afternoon off and was feeling contented with myself the following day as I headed out to help a young family who were vacationing in Burntcommon. They pulled over after inserting petrol in their Porsche, and they were about an hour's travel away. I turned up at their location and smirked to myself as I heard to the gal chastising her hubby for actually being so daft. "Precisely how could you conceivably be able to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I tried to clarify that this kind of thing comes to pass frequently in Surrey and that it is nothing to be concerned about, even so he all the same got an earful. Unfortunate lad. At any rate, I removed all of the polluted fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave them some right fuel. While they drove off I waved bon voyage and pondered on what her indoors would do to me in the event that I made the exact same mistake... I would under no circumstances live it down!
