AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout Norfolk we are finding an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a result of people not being totally sure how to use it (pay attention: it is not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right next to one another on the vehicle.

So, what is the problem with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As the product is mainly deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Moreover, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained as quickly as possible. And certainly do not turn over the motor - not even to move it away from the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you will almost certainly need to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally an important situation to address in a car - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in diesel or petrol can potentially lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can solve both cases very easily.

Take note however that so long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to parking bay we can gain access to the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

We have been called out to numerous private and business properties in Norfolk to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages.

Common incorrect fuel drain stories in Alpington:

Now I am not excessively hot for doing work Sundays, and 2 weeks ago was no different. I had only just come away from the family following a superb lunch cooked for me by the wife, and I was on the way to assist a fellow who filled the wrong petrol in his MG. He was located in Alpington thus I was on scene very quickly. Just as I drove up at the rear of the vehicle and started work he told me "Praise the Lord! I foolishly had my mind on other things and failed to realise I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Is it likely I brought on any kind of damage as a result of running it?" I explained that truth be told there shouldn't be any harm and that I would remove the fuel right away. It goes without saying that I got the contaminated fuel drained from the car and filled up with some correct fuel, and thus one more delighted customer could continue their trip without the need for difficulty. The gentleman did not stop thanking me, and that makes working on Sundays in Norfolk a tiny bit easier in my opinion!

This was an unsociable hour to be up. It was close to 2am and noone was about. It had been quite quiet until now, and Ryan and I were sitting about looking at several old articles. It was an uncommon restful time in Norfolk. Actually it was indeed so tranquil that the instant the phone eventually rang I jumped! The customer stated: "I've just finished my evening shift and incredibly put petrol in a Suzuki in error". We instructed him to inform us where exactly the vehicle was located and we headed out, getting to him in Alpington only 30 minutes later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed from the engine. He thanked us for getting there so fast. While we were heading back home we noticed two women at the side of the highway who seemed to have a flat. Obviously we stopped and helped them change it, much to their delight.

I had appreciated a great afternoon hiking on my afternoon off and was feeling pleased the following morning as I set off to assist a young family who were on holiday in Alpington. They had conked out after inserting diesel in their Ford, and were close to half an hour away. I turned up at their location and smiled to myself as I heard to the woman telling her man off for being so silly. "Exactly how could you conceivably manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she said to him. I wanted to clarify that this takes place regularly in Norfolk and that it's truly absolutely nothing to worry about, even so he still had an ear bashing. Unfortunate lad. In any case, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and gave them some appropriate fuel. While they drove away I shouted so long and considered what my wife would say to me if perhaps I made the very same blunder... I would never live it down!
