AdBlue In Your Diesel

All over East Sussex we have seen a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby a person has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly due to drivers not being totally sure the way to to make use of (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are typically right adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Well, what exactly is the matter with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Because the product is primarily deionised water, it is as bad as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition to this, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out as soon as possible. And obviously don't start the vehicle - not even to relocate it away from the pump. If you have started the vehicle you would almost certainly have to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant situation to handle in a vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel may cause idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both situations quite swiftly.

Remember that so long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured near to parking bay we can reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

Wrong Fuel Doctor Duddleswell - Duddleswell Vehicle Misfuel

A man contacted us from his house on a road in Duddleswell. He explained, "My car (a Citroen) is not starting and is making terrible noises when I turn the key." He said that he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle but then thought he would remedy the issue by putting further Diesel on top. We were on scene promptly, performed the drain and filled it up once more with fresh Diesel. He said after that he would be absolutely sure to inform people not to fill up in addition to the wrong fuel but to have it drained promptly.
