Contamination with Water and AdBlue

There are other reasons for engine troubles apart from wrong fuel in a vehicle. Fuel contaminated with water will also cause similar symptoms of lack of power, irregular running, a lot of smoke and stalling. This is a serious problem that can totally damage the fuel filters.

AdBlue if added wrongly it can also display similar signs in your vehicle. This additive which is utilized to purify the emissions of your engine should only be added through its own separate tank and automatic dosing system inbuilt into the vehicle rather than straight into a fuel tank of a diesel engine. Hence if somebody who is not aware of this process tries to add it to the fuel, it will result in engine trouble.

In both of the cases above, we can offer the same fuel system draining, flushing and refilling service as we do if you put the incorrect fuel in your vehicle. It doesn't matter what the cause is, we can get you back on your way. Furthermore, we can replace the fuel filters destroyed by water.

• A lot of smoke (more than usual)
• Engine coughing or starting to splutter
• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
