AdBlue Contamination
All around Greater Manchester we have seen a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly thanks to people being unsure of the way to use it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to each other on the automobile.
Now, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel car? As AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.
In case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And definitely don't crank the engine - not even to move it to a parking place. If you did start the car you would likely need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.
Fuel contaminated with water
Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be an important matter to address in a vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel will cause idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both cases quite simply.
Remember though that as long as the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one is going to be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Some reports:
I'm not ever excessively hot for carrying out work on weekends, and a couple weeks ago was the same. I'd just come away from the family after a tasty roast made for me by the better half, and I was on my way to help a gentleman after he put the wrong petrol in his Skoda. He was somewhere in Manchester and so it wouldn't be a long time before I arrived with him. As I arrived at the rear of the vehicle and started work he said to me "Thank God! I had my attention on stuff and did not ascertain I have put diesel in my petrol car. Is it likely I caused some problems by driving it?" I revealed that truth be told there should not be any kind of problems and that I'd get the contaminated fuel drained as quickly as possible for him. It goes without saying that I got the contaminated fuel drained from the vehicle and put in some suitable fuel, and so one more happy client had the ability to continue on their trip without any difficulty. He could not stop saying thanks to me, and this is what can make earning a living on Sundays in Greater Manchester a little better in my opinion!
