The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious issue to address in an automobile - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol will likely contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both cases fairly simply.

Remember however that so long as the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel Assist Green End - Wrong Fuel in Car Green End

I'd had a wonderful afternoon hiking on the weekend and felt satisfied with myself the next morning as I headed out to assist a new family on holiday in Green End. They had pulled over after putting the wrong fuel into their baby blue Audi A4, and the car was close to half an hour away. I arrived at their position and laughed while I listened to the girl telling her husband off for being so stupid. "How could you possibly manage to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I attempted to explain that this situation comes to pass everyday in Hertfordshire and that it's nothing to worry about, nonetheless he still had an ear bashing. Unfortunate lad. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled it up with the right fuel. As they drove off I waved good-bye and thought about what her indoors would ask me in the event that I made the same mistake... I would personally never ever live it down!
