AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout County Armagh we have identified progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein someone has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly as a result of drivers not knowing how to to make use of (please note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to one another on the car.

Now, exactly what is the issue with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing that the product is mostly ionised water, it's as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call if it turns out you are affected by AdBlue contamination. We will help. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and are able to handle all types of AdBlue contamination.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally an important issue to handle in a vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Putting water in the fuel tank will often produce idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not remedied fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both circumstances very swiftly.

Take note however that whenever the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one is going to be wholly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked close to a motor vehicle parking bay we can access the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}
