AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Kent we have noticed an increasing number of cases of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to a degree thanks to motorists not understanding the right way to to make use of (be aware: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are often right close to each other on the car.

Now, what's the problem with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it is actually just like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Additionally, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And obviously don't start up the engine - not even to move it off the pump. In the event that you did start the car you may most likely need to have the whole fuel system purged and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely an important issue to deal with in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in your diesel or petrol is going to contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove in comparison with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both circumstances fairly swiftly.

Remember though that any time the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will likely be completely wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured near to an automobile parking spot we should be able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}
