AdBlue In Diesel
In Essex we are finding an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is partially due to people not knowing the way to work with it (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to each other on the car.
So, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it is as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. Moreover, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.
In the event that you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out asap. And absolutely be careful not to switch on the motor - not even to relocate it into a parking spot. In the event that you did start the vehicle you may probably have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually an important situation to deal with in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines. Water in the diesel or petrol will trigger idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both circumstances rather simply.
Bear in mind however that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will be thoroughly wet and unusable.
Marine Fuel Drains
If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to reach the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.}
