AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Rutland we are noticing progressively more examples of AdBlue contamination where a driver has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly caused by people not being totally sure how to use it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to one another on the automobile.

Now, what is the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is actually just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Apart from this, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And absolutely do not start up the engine - not even to move it off of the pump. In case you did start the car you may almost certainly have to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious issue to deal with in an automobile - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel will contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both situations pretty easily.

Keep in mind though that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will likely be completely wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to an automobile parking spot we can gain access to the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

Petrol in Diesel Lyddington - Lyddington Fuel Drain

I had a great evening hiking during my off day and felt delighted with myself the next morning as I set off to assist a new couple who were vacationing in Lyddington. They conked out after adding petrol in their Fiat, and the car was close to an hour away. I got there at their location and laughed to myself while I listened to the girl telling off her partner for actually being so silly. "Exactly how could you possibly manage to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I attempted to explain that this kind of thing comes to pass continuously in Rutland and that it's nothing to fret about, nevertheless he yet still got his ear bent. Poor chap. Anyways, I drained out the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and gave it some right fuel. Watching them drive down the road I mouthed hasta la vista and considered what my missus would do to me if perhaps I did the very same thing... I would personally under no circumstances live it down!
