This is what exactly we do best.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Somerset we are noticing more and more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is in part due to people not being aware of the right way to to make use of (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to each other on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call in the event that you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and can correct all types of AdBlue fluid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually an important situation to deal with in a car - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel may lead to idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both circumstances rather easily.

Be aware that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will likely be totally water-logged and ineffective.
