These are the fuel mistakes services we can extend to you:

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Devon we are identifying more and more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent due to people not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (please note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to each other on the automobile.

So, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it right away. And of course do not turn over the vehicle - not even to shift it to a parking spot. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you will very likely need to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually an important issue to handle in a car - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Putting water in the diesel or petrol can easily lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not remedied properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both situations rather simply.

Keep in mind however that so long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one is going to be wholly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to an automobile parking bay we should be able to gain access to the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}
