AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Somerset we have seen an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partially stemming from drivers not knowing the way to to make use of (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly adjacent to one another on the car.

Now, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

If in case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank drain it right away. And absolutely don't start the engine - not even to relocate it off of the pump. Assuming you did start the vehicle you would in all likelihood have to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question a significant condition to handle in a vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank may well bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not remedied correctly, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both circumstances quite expediently.

Bear in mind though that whenever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will be completely water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured near to a vehicle parking spot we can reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}
