AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Hillingdon we are noticing a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent as a result of people not understanding the right way to to make use of (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right near to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Also, the urea is seriously corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

In case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank remove it immediately. And absolutely don't start the car - not even to shift it into a parking area. If perhaps you have started the car you would probably have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious issue to handle in a vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the diesel or petrol will often cause idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied correctly, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both cases fairly easily.

You should know though that whenever the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a vehicle parking bay we are able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}
