AdBlue In Diesel

All over Derbyshire we are finding a growing number of examples of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to people being unsure of how to to make use of (remember: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly next to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what's the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Since AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, obstructing injectors and filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And obviously don't start the engine - not even to relocate it off the pump. If you have started the car you would probably need to have the complete fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly an important condition to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel will often lead to idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both circumstances rather easily.

You should know that in the event that the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will likely be totally wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked near to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

We have been called out to quite a few domestic and commercial premises in Derbyshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages.
