AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Hampshire we have found progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination where someone has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent stemming from people being unsure of how to to make use of (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right near to each other on the vehicle.

Well, precisely what is the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And most certainly never crank the vehicle - not even to relocate it away from the pump. In the instance that you have started the car you will likely have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a significant issue to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water in your fuel can easily lead to idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both situations quite easily.

Take note that if the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will likely be totally wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured close to parking spot we can gain access to the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}

Vehicle Misfuel The Straits - The Straits Vehicle Misfuel

I'd had a terrific afternoon hiking during my afternoon off and was feeling contented with myself the next morning as I headed out to assist a young couple on vacation in The Straits. They pulled over after putting the wrong fuel in their MINI, and the car was roughly an hour away. I arrived at their position and smirked to myself as I listened to the girl chastising her partner for turning out to be so confused. "Just how could you even manage to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I wanted to tell her that this problem occurs on daily basis in Hampshire and that it's really nothing at all to be anxious about, even so he in spite of everything got an ear bashing. Poor lad. Anyways, I extracted the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled them up with the proper fuel. Watching them drive down the road I waved good bye and considered what my missus would do to me if ever I did the same thing... I'd never ever hear the end of it!
