AdBlue In Diesel

In South Lanarkshire we are encountering more and more cases of AdBlue contamination when someone has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent a result of people not knowing the right way to to make use of (note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to each other on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Because AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In case you get in this situation don?t fret or panic! Call us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination company. Our experts have got the specialised expertise and experience to have you back on the road swiftly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a serious issue to take care of in a car - particularly in current day common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank can certainly bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both cases pretty expediently.

Bear in mind that whenever the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to an automobile parking spot we are able to reach the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}
