AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Lambeth we have found increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a result of drivers not being aware of the way to work with it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to each other on the car.

Now, what is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing that the product is mainly ionised water, it is just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition to this, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And absolutely do not switch on the motor - not even to maneuver it off of the pump. In the instance that you have started the car you will most likely need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely an important matter to handle in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol will often trigger idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain than water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we can solve both cases quite expediently.

Keep in mind however that whenever the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will probably be completely water-logged and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car Cobham - Cobham Wrong Fuel Assist

I enjoyed a great evening hiking during the weekend and was feeling contented with myself the following working day as I headed out to aid a young couple who were vacationing in Cobham. They had stopped after inserting diesel in their Volkswagen, and they were close to an hour's travel away. I turned up at their location and smirked to myself while I heard to the gal chastising her man for turning out to be so daft. "Just how could you conceivably find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I wanted to explain that this comes to pass constantly in Lambeth and that it's in reality nothing at all to be concerned about, nevertheless he in spite of everything had his ear bent. I felt sorry for the boy. Anyhow, I cleaned up and removed all of the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the correct fuel. While they drove down the road I mouthed good bye and thought about what my missus would ask me if ever I did the very same thing... I would never hear the end of it!
