AdBlue Contamination

All over East Riding of Yorkshire we are discovering more and more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mainly stemming from motorists not understanding the right way to to make use of (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to one another on the vehicle.

So, what's the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not blend at all and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained immediately. And of course take care not to turn over the vehicle - not even to maneuver it into a parking bay. Assuming you did start the car you will most likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually a serious issue to handle in an automobile - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank can easily bring about idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both situations very expediently.

Take note though that so long as the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will likely be wholly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to parking bay we will be able to reach the storage and drain out the fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}
