AdBlue In Diesel

All around Bedfordshire we have discovered a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mainly as a consequence of drivers not understanding the right way to to make use of (be aware: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? As AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank empty it as quickly as possible. And most definitely be careful not to switch on the motor - not even to relocate it from the pump. In case you did start the vehicle you will most likely need to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely a significant matter to handle in a car - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in the diesel or petrol can easily bring about idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out properly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both circumstances pretty easily.

Be aware however that so long as the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will be wholly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a vehicle parking spot we are able to gain access to the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}
