Do you or your employees frequently misfuel your vehicle? We can resolve any connected problems.

AdBlue In your Fuel

All around Dorset we have identified an increasing number of examples of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent as a result of motorists not knowing the way to to make use of (take note: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and to some extent simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to one another on the automobile.

So, what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it is like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Apart from this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained immediately. And definitely never switch on the vehicle - not even to maneuver it off the pump. In cases where you did start the car you may in all probability have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a significant condition to take care of in a car - specifically in current day common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol will likely lead to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out than water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both situations very expediently.

Bear in mind however that if the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will be wholly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to access the storage and drain out the fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}
