AdBlue In Diesel

All around County Durham we are identifying progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is mainly as a consequence of people not understanding the way to to make use of (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to each other on the car.

Now, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Call us if it turns out you are suffering with AdBlue contamination. We can certainly 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's unleaded or diesel, is actually an important situation to take care of in a car - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel will often produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both situations quite easily.

Take note though that if the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will likely be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to reach the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}
