AdBlue Contamination

All around Hampshire we are discovering a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when an individual has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mainly due to drivers being unsure of the right way to work with it (note: it's not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly next to each other on the vehicle.

So, what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel tank? Because the product is primarily deionised water, it's as bad as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it out immediately. And definitely don't start the engine - not even to relocate it off the pump. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you may in all likelihood have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question an important condition to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Water in the petrol or diesel can potentially lead to idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both cases quite simply.

You should know that whenever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will be completely water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to parking spot we are able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}

Recent Fuel Drains in Hardway

Just a few of the ordinary stories we get from many of our specialists in Hardway:

Now I am certainly not excessively interested in working on weekends, and a couple weeks ago was no different. I had just departed the family filled with a tasty Sunday roast prepared by the missus, and I was off to sort out a man who put the incorrect petrol in his Dacia. He was only in Hardway hence I arrived with him almost immediately. As I pulled up at the car and started work he said to me "Praise God! I foolishly had my concentration on something else and didn't grasp that I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. I need to know if I inflicted harm through starting it?" I stated that there shouldn't be any kind of damage and also I would remove the fuel right away for him. Naturally I got the fuel drained from the car and filled it with the suitable fuel, and yet another delighted client could continue on his ride with no hassle. He did not stop saying thanks to me, and this helps make working on Sundays in Hampshire a tiny bit better for me personally!

A woman living in Hardway contacted us after she had managed to get her misfueled car to work. She had filled petrol in her diesel Jaguar and, like plenty prior to her, thought that she would be able to basically top up her tank with diesel and it would run fine. The car was coughing and then it stopped when she reached the entrance of her office. We immediately started on the fuel drain following her call and got it sorted within one hour whilst she was working. She came outside when we finished and thanked us stating, "I'm very pleased you fixed my vehicle."

A person phoned us from his house on a road in Hardway. He exclaimed, "My vehicle (a Mitsubishi) is not starting and is generating very bad noises when I flip the ignition." He confessed that he had put the wrong fuel in his diesel vehicle but then imagined he would resolve the problem by putting additional Diesel on top. We showed up promptly, performed the drain and filled it up once more with clean Diesel. He said that he would be sure to explain to people not to fill up on top of the incorrect fuel but to get it drained promptly.
