We are all set to take the wrong fuel job.
AdBlue In Your Diesel
Throughout Greater London we have encountered increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a degree thanks to people not being totally sure how to work with it (note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to each other on the automobile.
Well, what exactly is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? As AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.
If you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And absolutely never start the vehicle - not even to maneuver it from the pump. In case you did start the vehicle you would in all likelihood need to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.
Water contaminated fuel
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually a serious matter to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Putting water in the petrol or diesel is likely to result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain when compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both situations fairly easily.
You should know that whenever the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will probably be thoroughly wet and unusable.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out.
