AdBlue Contamination
In West Sussex we have encountered an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree caused by motorists being unsure of the way to to make use of (note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to one another on the car.
Well, precisely what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.
Call us in the event that you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can fix different types of AdBlue contamination.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly a serious condition to deal with in a car - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in the diesel or petrol is likely to result in idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed correctly, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both cases very swiftly.
Remember that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and useless.

This was most definitely what we call an unsociable time to be on the road. It was around 2 in the morning and hardly anyone was stirring. It had been pretty dead so far, and me and Ryan were relaxing perusing a few old articles. This was an unusual tranquil hour in West Sussex. Actually it was in fact so tranquil that the moment the phone eventually rang I jumped with surprise! The voice on the opposite end stated: "I've only just completed my evening shift and stupidly put the wrong fuel in my Ford in error". We asked him to inform us just where the car was situated and we hit the road, arriving in Old Shoreham less than 30 minutes later. The contaminated fuel was taken out from the motor and he thanked us for coming out so fast. As we were coming back to the depot we found two young ladies at the edge of the road who seemed to have a puncture. Accordingly we pulled up to change it, to their elation.
