It was just before 7 pm on a Monday and while we were assured a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and me were sitting there talking over the recent tennis rankings, prepared for the 6th call that day to arrive. Finally we had the phone call from a lady on a company trip who had gone to the Texaco petrol station in Great Finborough and put petrol in her diesel BMW rental car. The unfortunate thing was rather troubled by the sounds of it, crying "I cannot believe that I've messed up the car! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol car that I completely forgot that I was using a diesel!" I just asked her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that such things unfortunately can happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle to a protected spot and, as it was just a few minutes off from where we were, we could find the woman almost instantly.

AdBlue In Diesel

All around Suffolk we have discovered progressively more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a driver has put AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is mostly as a consequence of drivers not being aware of how to to make use of (pay attention: it's in truth not a fuel additive), and to some extent due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly close to each other on the automobile.

So, precisely what is the situation with putting AdBlue in your diesel car? As the product is mainly deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will not work. Moreover, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you poured AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained at the earliest opportunity. And certainly do not switch on the motor - not even to maneuver it into a parking place. If you did start the car you may likely need to have the entire fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly an important situation to take care of in an automobile - specifically in more modern common-rail engines. Water in the fuel tank can cause idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can solve both cases rather simply.

You should know though that if ever the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

As long as the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to parking bay we can reach the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel.
