AdBlue In Diesel

All around Suffolk we have identified a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has poured AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is in part caused by motorists not understanding the right way to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what's the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is nearly as good as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is extremely corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

If you find you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it drained immediately. And certainly don't start up the motor - not even to relocate it to a parking bay. Assuming you did start the vehicle you would probably have to have the full fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant situation to handle in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in petrol or diesel can potentially cause idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both circumstances quite expediently.

Remember however that any time the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will likely be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to parking spot we are able to access the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}
