AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Staffordshire we have discovered progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to people not being aware of the way to work with it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right adjacent to one another on the car.

Well, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And certainly do not turn over the motor - not even to relocate it into a parking place. In the instance that you did start the car you may in all probability have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a serious condition to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel will likely cause idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both circumstances rather quickly.

Take note however that as long as the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a car or truck parking bay we are able to reach the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}
