AdBlue Contamination

All over Newham we have seen a lot more cases of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent due to motorists not knowing the right way to work with it (be aware: it's not a fuel additive), and partly because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to each other on the vehicle.

Now, what's the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it's like putting water in your tank. Diesel and water will not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. In addition, the urea is highly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, clogging injectors and filters.

In the case you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank drain it right away. And most definitely take care not to start the engine - not even to relocate it to a parking area. In case you did start the car you will probably need to have the complete fuel system flushed and filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely a significant matter to deal with in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank can potentially contribute to idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both circumstances pretty quickly.

Keep in mind however that any time the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will likely be wholly water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.}
