AdBlue In Diesel

In Oxfordshire we are encountering a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part stemming from people not being aware of the right way to to make use of (take note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to each other on the car.

Now, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? As the product is predominantly ionised water, it's as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If you find you put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And obviously do not start the engine - not even to relocate it off the pump. In cases where you have started the car you will almost certainly have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a serious situation to address in an automobile - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank can potentially trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out than water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both cases very expediently.

Keep in mind though that in the event that the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will be completely wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a vehicle parking spot we are able to access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}
