AdBlue Contamination

In Lancashire we are identifying an increasing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partially a result of motorists being unsure of the way to to make use of (pay attention: it's not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right near to each other on the car.

Now, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Because AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it is as bad as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If perhaps you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out asap. And absolutely do not turn over the car - not even to relocate it to a parking area. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you will in all probability have to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a significant issue to address in a vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water in fuel tank may well lead to idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with correctly, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove than water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both circumstances rather easily.

Bear in mind that as long as the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to an automobile parking spot we are able to gain access to the storage and remove the fuel. We have succesfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.}
