AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Hampshire we have noticed more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is to some extent as a result of motorists being unsure of the right way to use it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to each other on the car.

So, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Because AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And definitely be careful not to start up the car - not even to relocate it to a parking spot. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you will probably need to have the entire fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant matter to address in a vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines. Having water in the diesel or petrol may cause idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can solve both situations fairly swiftly.

Keep in mind however that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly be completely wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a car or truck parking bay we are able to gain access to the storage and remove the fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial properties in Hampshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages.
