AdBlue In your Fuel

In Leicestershire we are encountering increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination where someone has poured AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is mostly thanks to drivers not understanding the right way to work with it (note: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right next to one another on the vehicle.

Now, exactly what is the situation with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is very corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

If in case you put AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And of course take care not to turn over the engine - not even to move it to a parking spot. If you have started the car you may in all probability need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious situation to take care of in a car - particularly in advanced common-rail engines. Having water inside your petrol or diesel will likely trigger idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain than water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both situations pretty easily.

Take note though that any time the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured near to an automobile parking spot we can access the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}
