She was somewhat agitated it seemed, telling me "I simply can't believe I've wrecked the car! I'm just so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car I totally forgot I was running a diesel!"

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over Hampshire we have encountered progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree a result of people not knowing the right way to use it (be aware: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.

Well, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Because AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained at once. And certainly never start the motor - not even to maneuver it to a parking area. In cases where you have started the vehicle you would very likely need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely an important matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in petrol or diesel may well bring about idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain when compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we can handle both circumstances quite simply.

Keep in mind that if ever the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will likely be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to reach the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}
