AdBlue In your Fuel

What you can do in case you may have put Adblue into a Diesel fuel tank? Adblue is certainly devastating to your vehicle's fuel system, specifically if you have had the engine running with Adblue in the tank.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually an important condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol will result in idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both situations rather simply.

Be aware however that so long as the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will be thoroughly wet and useless.

Fuel Removal Chard - Chard Fuel Drain

I'd had a fantastic day cycling on my holiday and felt satisfied the following working day as I set out to help a young couple who were on vacation in Chard. They pulled over after putting the wrong fuel into their Land Rover, and the car was approximately half an hour's drive away. I emerged at their car and smirked as I listened to the lady telling her partner off for actually being so daft. "Exactly how could you even be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I tried to clarify that this kind of thing happens everyday in Somerset and that it is nothing to get worried about, however he yet still had an ear bashing. Unlucky guy. Anyways, I cleaned up and removed the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and gave it some proper fuel. As they drove down the road I mouthed good-bye and considered what her indoors would say to me if I did the same thing... I would never ever live it down!
