AdBlue In your Fuel

In Leicestershire we have discovered a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent as a result of motorists not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (please note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to each other on the car.

So, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

In case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained right away. And certainly do not start the engine - not even to relocate it to a parking spot. In case you have started the car you will likely have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious matter to handle in an automobile - especially in current day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel may well lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed properly, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both circumstances rather swiftly.

Take note however that if ever the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will be wholly wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured near to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the storage and drain out the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Fuel Removal Thorpe Satchville - Thorpe Satchville Petrol in Diesel

I'd had a fantastic evening hiking during the weekend and was feeling pleased with myself the next morning as I set off to assist a young couple who were vacationing in Thorpe Satchville. They broken down after adding the wrong fuel in their Renault, and were approximately half an hour's drive away. I emerged at their car and smiled to myself as I listened to the wife chastising her partner for being so stupid. "Just how could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I attempted to tell her that this situation comes to pass on daily basis in Leicestershire and that it's nothing at all to get worried about, nevertheless he in spite of everything had an ear bashing. Unlucky chap. Anyways, I cleaned up and removed all the wrong fuel, flushed the motor and gave them some correct fuel. Watching them drive off I shouted good-bye and pondered on what my wife would tell me if I did the exact same thing... I would personally under no circumstances live it down!
