Do you or your employees frequently misfuel your car? We can resolve any associated problems.
AdBlue In Your Diesel
All over Gloucestershire we have identified more and more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent due to people not knowing the way to use it (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly next to one another on the automobile.
Now, what exactly is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Because the product is mainly ionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.
If in case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it as soon as possible. And of course never crank the engine - not even to shift it from the pump. In cases where you have started the vehicle you will in all probability need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be an important matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in petrol or diesel is going to trigger idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both cases pretty quickly.
Take note that if ever the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will be totally water-logged and unusable.
