Do you or your employees usually misfuel your vehicle? We can resolve any connected problems.

AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Staffordshire we are encountering more and more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a degree caused by drivers not being totally sure the way to to make use of (be aware: it's actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to one another on the car.

Now, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing that the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

In case you put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And certainly be careful not to turn over the vehicle - not even to shift it off the pump. If you have started the vehicle you will almost certainly have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious matter to handle in an automobile - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in the fuel can easily cause idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both circumstances quite simply.

Take note though that whenever the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one is going to be totally wet and unusable.
