AdBlue Contamination

All over Wiltshire we are discovering increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly as a consequence of drivers not being aware of the way to work with it (take note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to each other on the car.

Now, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle?

Since the product is mainly ionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters. In the event that you have put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it asap. And definitely don't turn over the motor - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In the event that you have started the car you would in all likelihood have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Give us a call if it turns out you have suffered with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to take care of every type of AdBlue contamination.

Wrong Fuel Assist Chalford - Wrong Fuel in Car Chalford

I had enjoyed a great day cycling on the weekend and was feeling cheerful with myself the next day as I set out to aid a new family who were away in Chalford. They had pulled over after putting diesel into their white Fiat Ulysse, and the car was about half an hour away. I arrived at their position and smirked to myself while I heard to the lady chastising her spouse for turning out to be so daft. "Exactly how could you even find a way to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to tell her that this happens on daily basis in Wiltshire and that it's absolutely nothing to worry about, even so he still got an ear bashing. Unlucky lad. Anyhow, I removed the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and gave them some right fuel. While watching them drive down the road I waved so long and considered what her indoors would ask me if ever I made the exact same error... I would personally never hear the end of it!

If you’ve just filled up at a petrol station and the cars starts to act a bit strange you might start to wonder if you accidentally put the wrong fuel in it.
