AdBlue In Your Diesel
All over Leicestershire we are finding increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partly due to people not knowing the right way to to make use of (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to one another on the vehicle.
So, what exactly is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.
In the event that you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it asap. And certainly take care not to turn over the motor - not even to move it to a parking area. In cases where you have started the vehicle you may likely have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is certainly a significant condition to deal with in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the diesel or petrol may bring about idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both situations fairly simply.
Keep in mind that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will probably be thoroughly wet and ineffective.
Boat Fuel Drains
If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or even dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a car or truck parking bay we are able to access the storage and remove the fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}

We have been called out to numerous private and industrial premises in Leicestershire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages.
