AdBlue In your Fuel

In North Yorkshire we have found an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly due to drivers being unsure of the right way to work with it (please note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

So, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call in the event that you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can assist. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and will be able to fix all kinds of AdBlue liquid contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be a serious matter to address in a vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Having water inside your diesel or petrol may produce idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both situations pretty quickly.

Keep in mind however that in the event that the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one is going to be completely wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a car parking bay we will be able to access the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}
