AdBlue In your Fuel

All over Haringey we have found a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is mostly as a result of drivers being unsure of the right way to to make use of (remember: it is not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

So, exactly what is the problem with having AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is predominantly ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Furthermore, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, obstructing injectors and filters.

In case you put AdBlue in the fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And obviously don't turn over the engine - not even to maneuver it to a parking spot. If perhaps you have started the vehicle you will almost certainly have to have the full fuel system purged and filters changed out.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases an important condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol is likely to trigger idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both cases pretty quickly.

You should know though that if the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one is going to be thoroughly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or even dirty fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have succesfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}

We've been called out to several private and industrial premises in Haringey to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages.

Wrong Fuel Assist Hornsey Vale - Hornsey Vale Wrong Fuel in Car

I had appreciated a terrific evening fishing during my day off and felt satisfied the next morning as I headed out to help a young family who were away in Hornsey Vale. They pulled over after adding diesel in their Mazda, and the car was roughly an hour's drive away. I showed up at their car and laughed as I heard to the woman chastising her man for actually being so confused. "Precisely how could you even find a way to fill the car up with the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I tried to tell her that this situation comes to pass all the time in Haringey and that it's nothing to stress about, even so he still got his ear bent by his wife. Poor chap. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed all the polluted fuel, flushed the engine and gave it some correct fuel. Watching them drive down the road I mouthed bon voyage and thought about what her indoors would say to me in the event that I did the exact same thing... I would never hear the end of it!
