AdBlue In Diesel

All around Somerset we are finding a growing number of cases of AdBlue contamination when a motorist has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is to some extent stemming from motorists being unsure of the way to to make use of (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually directly adjacent to each other on the vehicle.

Well, exactly what is the situation with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water really do not blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

If perhaps you poured AdBlue into the fuel tank drain it at the earliest opportunity. And certainly be careful not to crank the car - not even to relocate it off of the pump. In the instance that you did start the car you may probably have to have the entire fuel system purged and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be an important condition to handle in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines. Water inside your petrol or diesel can potentially produce idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain than water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both circumstances quite quickly.

Be aware however that if the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will likely be totally wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps dirty fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to an automobile parking bay we can gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.}
