AdBlue In Diesel

Throughout County Durham we have identified an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a result of motorists not understanding the way to to make use of (remember: it's actually not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Since the product is predominantly deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

If you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And most certainly take care not to switch on the engine - not even to maneuver it off the pump. In case you did start the vehicle you will likely have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious situation to address in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel is going to trigger idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with properly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both situations fairly swiftly.

Keep in mind though that if ever the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a car parking bay we are able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've succesfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}
