AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Berkshire we are noticing an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly caused by people not being totally sure how to to make use of (take note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right near to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? Seeing that the product is mainly deionised water, it is almost the same as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Apart from this, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it asap. And most definitely don't start the motor - not even to relocate it into a parking bay. Assuming you did start the car you may very likely have to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious condition to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol is likely to trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out fully, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both situations fairly swiftly.

Remember that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one is going to be completely wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a car or truck parking bay we can reach the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}
