AdBlue Contamination
All over Norfolk we are finding increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is partly caused by motorists not knowing the way to work with it (remember: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly close to each other on the car.
Now, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle?
Seeing that the product is predominantly ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition to this, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters. In the case you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And definitely be careful not to switch on the vehicle - not even to relocate it off the pump. If you have started the vehicle you may almost certainly need to have the full fuel system flushed and filters replaced.
Contact us if you are struggling with AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and will fix different types of AdBlue contamination.
Marine Fuel Drains
In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.

Wrong Fuel in Car Norfolk - Petrol in Diesel Car Mileham
I'm not so interested in working Sundays, and a while back was the same. I'd only just left home after a wonderful Sunday roast cooked for us by the wife, and I was off to help a gentleman because he put the incorrect fuel in his Ferarri red Volkswagen Eurovan. He was located in Mileham hence I was with him before long. Just as I pulled up at the rear of the car and got busy draining he told me "Thank the Lord! I foolishly had my mind on other things and did not grasp that I have put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I created any problems by running it?" I stated generally there shouldn't be any harm and that also I'd remove the fuel as soon as possible. Needless to say I got the fuel drained from the vehicle and put in some appropriate fuel, and so another satisfied client had the ability to carry on with his ride without the difficulty. He could hardly stop thanking me, and this helps make operating on Sundays in Norfolk just that small bit easier to me!
