AdBlue Contamination

In Northamptonshire we have seen a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree due to drivers not being aware of the right way to work with it (please note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And most definitely never crank the motor - not even to move it off the pump. In the event that you have started the vehicle you will in all likelihood need to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant issue to address in a vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water in your diesel or petrol will contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both cases rather easily.

Bear in mind though that if the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to access the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

We've been called out to numerous private and business premises in Northamptonshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages.

Wrong Fuel Drain Thornby - Thornby Wrong Fuel Assist

I enjoyed a great afternoon hiking on my holiday and felt pleased with myself the next morning as I set out to assist a new couple who were away in Thornby. They had stopped after adding the wrong fuel into their Mazda, and they were around an hour's travel away. I arrived at their car and smirked to myself as I heard to the woman telling her hubby off for actually being so daft. "Just how could you possibly manage to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I tried to clarify that this takes place everyday in Northamptonshire and that it is nothing to stress about, even so he still got an ear bashing. Unfortunate lad. At any rate, I drained the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave them some appropriate fuel. Watching them drive away I shouted hasta la vista and thought about what my wife would tell me if ever I made the same mistake... I would never ever hear the end of it!
