AdBlue In Diesel

All around Lancashire we are noticing more and more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly thanks to motorists not knowing how to use it (remember: it's actually not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to one another on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since the product is mostly ionised water, it is almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And most definitely be careful not to crank the vehicle - not even to shift it from the pump. In case you did start the car you would in all probability have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question a serious issue to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank can certainly cause idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with properly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both circumstances very easily.

Take note however that if ever the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one is going to be totally wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to parking spot we will be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}
