AdBlue In Your Diesel
All over Oxfordshire we are finding an increasing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein an individual has put AdBlue inside their diesel fuel tank. This is to a certain extent caused by motorists not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (please note: it is not a fuel additive), and partially due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are typically right close to one another on the automobile.
Well, what exactly is the issue with having AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing as the product is mostly ionised water, it is almost the same as putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters.
If in case you have put AdBlue in the fuel tank empty it immediately. And definitely do not turn over the engine - not even to move it into a parking bay. In cases where you have started the car you may most likely have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters replaced.
Water contaminated fuel
Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be a serious condition to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel will likely produce idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both circumstances very swiftly.
Remember however that if the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and unusable.
Marine Fuel Drains
In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out.

We've completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}
