AdBlue In your Fuel

All over East Sussex we are identifying an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent as a consequence of people not knowing the way to work with it (be aware: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly adjacent to one another on the car.

Well, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. In addition, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out right away. And obviously take care not to start the engine - not even to maneuver it from the pump. Assuming you did start the car you would almost certainly need to have the whole fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally a serious condition to handle in a vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel tank can produce idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both situations very swiftly.

Be aware that if ever the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will probably be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated close to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to access the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}
