AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Hertfordshire we are identifying a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a result of motorists not being totally sure the way to to make use of (take note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly near to each other on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is actually like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. In addition, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And definitely never crank the engine - not even to maneuver it into a parking area. In the event that you have started the vehicle you would probably need to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel tank may lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both situations fairly quickly.

Remember that as long as the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will probably be completely water-logged and unusable.

Petrol in Diesel Tewin - Tewin Petrol in Diesel

I'd had a great evening hiking on my day off and felt pleased with myself the following morning as I headed out to assist a young couple away in Tewin. They conked out after inserting diesel into their Skoda, and the car was around half an hour away. I showed up at their location and laughed to myself while I heard to the wife berating her partner for actually being so silly. "Just how could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I wanted to tell her that this problem happens regularly in Hertfordshire and that it's really nothing to be concerned about, nonetheless he yet still had an earful. I felt sorry for the guy. Anyhow, I extracted the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some proper fuel. Watching them drive down the road I mouthed so long and considered what her indoors would say to me in the event that I made the exact same blunder... I'd personally never live it down!
