AdBlue In Diesel

All over Kent we have noticed progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a degree a result of motorists not understanding the right way to to make use of (be aware: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right adjacent to one another on the car.

So, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's just like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And certainly take care not to turn over the vehicle - not even to move it off of the pump. In the event that you did start the vehicle you will very likely have to have the entire fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely an important situation to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel may well contribute to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both cases quite easily.

Bear in mind that in the event that the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}

We've been called out to numerous privately owned and business premises in Kent to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages.
