AdBlue Contamination
All around Lancashire we are finding progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partially as a result of people being unsure of the right way to use it (note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to one another on the automobile.
So, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.
If perhaps you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it asap. And certainly never start the car - not even to relocate it to a parking area. In case you did start the vehicle you will in all probability need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely an important issue to address in a vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel is going to lead to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove than water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both circumstances pretty easily.
You should know however that in the event that the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will likely be wholly wet and ineffective.
Marine Fuel Drains
In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked near to a car parking bay we can reach the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}
