AdBlue In Diesel

All over Highland we have encountered increasingly more examples of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is partly stemming from motorists not understanding how to to make use of (remember: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly next to one another on the vehicle.

Well, what's the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out at once. And definitely take care not to turn over the engine - not even to move it to a parking bay. In case you did start the car you would very likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually an important situation to address in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Putting water in your petrol or diesel is likely to cause idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both circumstances quite swiftly.

Keep in mind that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one is going to be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Wrong Fuel Doctor Portree - Portree Petrol in Diesel

I appreciated a fantastic day fishing on my off day and was feeling delighted the following morning as I set off to aid a young family who were away in Portree. They'd pulled over after filling diesel into their Volvo, and were around half an hour away. I showed up at their car and smirked as I listened to the girl telling her man off for turning out to be so foolish. "How could you possibly be able to fill the vehicle up with the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I tried to explain that this kind of thing comes to pass continuously in Highland and that it's in reality absolutely nothing to be concerned about, nonetheless he in spite of everything got his ear bent. Unfortunate guy. In any case, I drained out the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled them up with the right fuel. While watching them drive away I waved farewell and thought about what my missus would do to me if ever I did the very same thing... I'd never hear the end of it!
