AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Berkshire we have encountered a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partly as a consequence of motorists not being aware of the right way to to make use of (take note: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to one another on the car.

So, what exactly is the problem with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Since AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is just like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water don't mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition to this, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

If in case you put AdBlue in a fuel tank empty it immediately. And absolutely take care not to start up the car - not even to maneuver it off the pump. If you did start the vehicle you would in all probability have to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant condition to deal with in a car - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel is likely to result in idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of than water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both situations quite quickly.

Be aware though that if the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will likely be wholly wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to parking bay we are able to reach the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}

We've been called out to numerous private and business properties in Berkshire to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages.

Wrong Fuel in Car New Town, Berkshire

Wrong Fuel New Town - New Town Vehicle Misfuel

I'd had a terrific evening golfing on my off day and felt pleased with myself the following working day as I headed out to help a young couple on vacation in New Town. They had conked out after putting diesel into their Vauxhall, and were close to an hour away. I showed up at their position and laughed to myself while I heard to the wife telling her husband off for turning out to be so daft. "How could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I tried to explain that this comes to pass on a regular basis in Berkshire and that it's nothing at all to be anxious about, even so he all the same got an ear bashing. I felt genuine sympathy for the chap. Anyways, I drained out all of the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave them some appropriate fuel. While they drove away I shouted good bye and thought about what her indoors would say to me if I made the same mistake... I'd personally never ever hear the end of it!
