AdBlue Contamination

In Berkshire we have noticed an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a motorist has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partly as a result of motorists being unsure of the way to to make use of (pay attention: it's actually not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right close to one another on the car.

Well, exactly what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? As the product is mainly ionised water, it is actually almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

If you find you put AdBlue in a fuel tank remove it at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely never turn over the motor - not even to relocate it off the pump. In the event that you have started the car you will almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually a serious issue to deal with in a car - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in your petrol or diesel may well trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both circumstances rather swiftly.

Take note though that in the event that the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will be completely wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to parking bay we can reach the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.}

This was certainly an unsociable hour to be up. It was around 2:30am and hardly anyone was around. It had become quite dead so far, and me and John were loafing around looking at some old papers. It was an unusual calm time in Berkshire. Actually it was in fact so quiet that the moment my mobile rang it made me start! The customer explained: "I've finished my night shift and stupidly put the wrong fuel in a SEAT". We instructed him to inform us exactly where the car was and we set off, getting to him in Colthrop half an hour later. The wrong fuel was extracted from the car and he thanked us profusely for showing up so quickly. As we were heading back home we noticed two women on the edge of the highway who seemed to have a flat tyre. Accordingly we got out to help them change it, to their elation.
