AdBlue Contamination

Throughout Suffolk we have encountered a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly due to drivers not being totally sure the right way to work with it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to one another on the automobile.

Now, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Because the product is primarily ionised water, it's as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it immediately. And most definitely don't switch on the engine - not even to move it to a parking bay. In the event that you did start the car you would probably have to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant matter to deal with in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Water inside your fuel tank can potentially result in idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both cases fairly swiftly.

Take note though that as long as the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will undoubtedly be totally wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a car parking spot we will be able to reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}
