AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Lancashire we have noticed a lot more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when an individual has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is to some extent a result of people not being aware of the right way to work with it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Now, what exactly is the trouble with having AdBlue in your diesel car? Since AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend in the slightest and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Furthermore, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If in case you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it as quickly as possible. And definitely be careful not to crank the vehicle - not even to move it to a parking bay. Assuming you have started the vehicle you would almost certainly have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually a serious situation to take care of in an automobile - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Having water in petrol or diesel will likely result in idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both cases quite expediently.

Keep in mind though that as long as the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will likely be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to parking bay we can access the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.}

Vehicle Misfuel Caton - Caton Wrong Fuel Drain

I had a wonderful day fishing on the weekend and felt satisfied with myself the next working day as I was en route to aid a new family who were away in Caton. They'd stopped after inserting the wrong fuel into their Renault, and they were close to an hour's travel away. I arrived at their location and laughed as I heard to the gal telling off her hubby for being so confused. "Precisely how could you actually be able to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I tried to clarify that this situation comes to pass frequently in Lancashire and that it's nothing at all to fret about, even so he still got an ear bashing by his missus. I felt sorry for the chap. In any case, I extracted the wrong fuel, flushed the motor and gave them some right fuel. Watching them drive off I shouted farewell and thought about what my missus would ask me if perhaps I did the exact same thing... I would personally never hear the end of it!
