We are all set to take the wrong fuel work.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Hertfordshire we are noticing more and more cases of AdBlue contamination where a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partially a result of motorists not being totally sure the way to to make use of (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to one another on the car.

So, what's the matter with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, clogging injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And most certainly do not turn over the motor - not even to move it off the pump. In the event that you have started the car you will almost certainly have to have the whole fuel system purged and fuel filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be a serious condition to take care of in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines. Putting water inside your diesel or petrol may well produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both situations very swiftly.

Remember however that so long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one is going to be totally wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}

Wrong Fuel Drain Smug Oak - Smug Oak Petrol in Diesel
