The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have successfully done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.

AdBlue In your Fuel

In Hertfordshire we are encountering a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly stemming from drivers not being aware of the right way to work with it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally right adjacent to each other on the car.

So, what's the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel tank?

Because the product is mostly deionised water, it is actually just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Also, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters. If you find you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out immediately. And of course don't switch on the vehicle - not even to move it to a parking area. Assuming you did start the vehicle you may in all probability have to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed.

In case you find yourself in this situation do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Premium fuel contamination service. Our experts have got the technical know-how and experience to have you back on your way quickly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.
