AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Suffolk we have noticed increasingly more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part as a result of motorists not knowing the way to to make use of (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are frequently directly near to one another on the car.

So, exactly what is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is almost the same as putting water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is extremely corrosive to fuel system lines and seals and is prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In the case you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank empty it at the earliest opportunity. And most definitely take care not to crank the engine - not even to relocate it away from the pump. If you have started the vehicle you would probably have to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Having water inside your fuel is going to contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not addressed fully, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out as compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both situations fairly simply.

You should know that whenever the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or dirty fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to gain access to the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}

We've been called out to several private and industrial premises in Suffolk to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally. Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a number of drums in a storage shed, as long as we are able to get to it, we are able to drain it for you.

Recent Fuel Drains in Great Cornard

A few of the more common circumstances we have heard from the technicians in Great Cornard:

I'm certainly not overly interested in running Sundays, and a couple weeks ago was no different. I'd just left the wife and kids after a tasty roast cooked for me by the better half, and I was off to assist a fellow after he filled the wrong fuel in his Land Rover. He was stationed in Great Cornard so it wouldn't be a long time before I reached him. As I pulled up right behind the vehicle and stepped out he told me "Praise God! I had my concentration on other considerations and didn't grasp that I've put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Have I brought about damage by starting it?" I determined there probably should not be any kind of damage and also I would personally get the contaminated fuel drained immediately. Naturally I got the fuel drained from the car and filled up with some appropriate fuel, and thus another contented customer was able to continue his journey without the difficulty. The guy could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and that helps make carrying out work on Sundays in Suffolk just that tiny bit easier for me personally!
