AdBlue In Diesel

All around Midlothian we have found a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially as a consequence of drivers not being aware of how to to make use of (please note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Now, precisely what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Because AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And definitely don't start up the engine - not even to shift it from the pump. In case you have started the car you may in all likelihood need to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important situation to take care of in an automobile - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank will trigger idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain than water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both circumstances rather swiftly.

Be aware however that if the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will probably be totally water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to an automobile parking bay we should be able to reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}
