This is what we do best.
AdBlue In Diesel
In Devon we are noticing an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is in part caused by people not understanding the way to work with it (pay attention: it's actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to each other on the vehicle.
Well, what's the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel car? As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Apart from this, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.
In case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And certainly take care not to switch on the vehicle - not even to move it off of the pump. In case you have started the car you may almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel tank is likely to lead to idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain as compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both situations pretty easily.
Keep in mind that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and unusable.
