AdBlue In Your Diesel

Throughout Tyne and Wear we have seen a lot more instances of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly a result of people not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (please note: it is in fact not a fuel additive), and in part because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally right next to each other on the car.

So, precisely what is the situation with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? As AdBlue is predominantly deionised water, it's nearly as good as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water do not ever blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Also, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is susceptible to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.

If you have put AdBlue into your fuel tank drain it immediately. And certainly do not start the car - not even to maneuver it off the pump. In the event that you have started the car you may in all probability need to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a significant condition to address in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines. Water in your fuel tank may well lead to idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with correctly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain as compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both cases quite swiftly.

Keep in mind that as long as the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one is going to be totally water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to access the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.}

Wrong Fuel Harraton - Harraton Wrong Fuel Doctor

I enjoyed a fantastic day fishing on my off day and was feeling delighted with myself the following day as I set off to help a young family holidaying in Harraton. They had conked out after inserting petrol into their Smart, and they were approximately half an hour away. I arrived at their location and smirked to myself while I listened to the gal telling her partner off for actually being so confused. "Exactly how could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I attempted to clarify that this happens regularly in Tyne and Wear and that it is absolutely nothing to be concerned about, nevertheless he yet still got an ear bashing. Unlucky chap. Anyways, I removed all the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. While watching them drive away I mouthed so long and wondered what her indoors would tell me if ever I made the exact same error... I'd under no circumstances live it down!
