AdBlue Contamination

All around North Yorkshire we are noticing increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination where somebody has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of motorists not knowing how to to make use of (be aware: it is actually not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right close to one another on the car.

So, what's the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it right away. And of course never crank the car - not even to move it into a parking place. In case you did start the car you may probably have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually an important condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel is going to produce idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not addressed fully, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both cases fairly quickly.

Keep in mind though that if the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will undoubtedly be completely wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of drums in a storage shed, assuming that we can access it, we can empty it for you.
