AdBlue Contamination

In Herefordshire we are noticing an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination where an individual has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to some extent due to drivers being unsure of the way to to make use of (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly close to each other on the automobile.

Now, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

Give us a call if it turns out you are a casualty of AdBlue contamination. We can help you. We are Contaminated Fuel Specialists and can attend to all kinds of AdBlue contamination.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually an important situation to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Having water in fuel tank can produce idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both circumstances pretty quickly.

You should know however that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one is going to be totally wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a car parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}
