We can assist you with these mis-fuel problems.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over East Sussex we are discovering a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly caused by people not being aware of the way to work with it (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right near to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what's the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As the product is mainly deionised water, it is like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

In the event that you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained right away. And most certainly do not switch on the motor - not even to move it away from the pump. If you did start the car you will most likely need to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is without question a serious issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank will often trigger idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both cases quite quickly.

Remember however that as long as the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one is going to be wholly water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to parking bay we are able to access the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}
