AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Barnet we have discovered increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein somebody has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is partly stemming from motorists not knowing the way to to make use of (important: it is actually not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally directly close to each other on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? As the product is predominantly ionised water, it is actually like pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Apart from this, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystalising, obstructing injectors and fuel filters.

Assuming you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And obviously don't start the vehicle - not even to shift it into a parking place. If you have started the car you would in all likelihood have to have the complete fuel system cleaned and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually a significant issue to address in a vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in petrol or diesel is likely to cause idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both situations pretty swiftly.

You should know however that whenever the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one is going to be completely wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a motor vehicle parking spot we can reach the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}
