AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Essex we have identified progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to some extent due to drivers not knowing the way to use it (please note: it's in fact not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly next to one another on the car.

So, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is actually as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Also, the urea is highly corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained immediately. And definitely be careful not to start the car - not even to move it off of the pump. In case you have started the car you will very likely have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant matter to deal with in an automobile - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your fuel tank can easily lead to idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both circumstances quite quickly.

Keep in mind however that so long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured near to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Wrong Fuel Tollesbury - Tollesbury Vehicle Misfuel

A customer rang us from his house on a close in Tollesbury. He exclaimed, "My vehicle (a Jaguar) is not running and is creating dreadful noises when I flip the ignition." He admitted that he had put unleaded in his diesel car but then reckoned he would fix the issue by putting extra Diesel on top. We showed up quickly, performed the fuel drain and filled him up once more with clean Diesel. He said he'd be absolutely sure to inform people not to fill up in addition to the incorrect fuel but to have it drained promptly.
