AdBlue In Diesel

All around Hillingdon we are discovering more and more examples of AdBlue contamination where a person has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is in part thanks to drivers not knowing how to to make use of (pay attention: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically directly near to each other on the automobile.

Well, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing as AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is quite corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you poured AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it as soon as possible. And of course never switch on the vehicle - not even to shift it into a parking place. In case you have started the vehicle you will likely have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious matter to handle in an automobile - particularly in modern day common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol will often lead to idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not remedied correctly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both situations rather swiftly.

Bear in mind that any time the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will be completely wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near to an automobile parking bay we will be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}
