AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around West Sussex we are finding more and more instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has poured AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly due to drivers not being aware of how to to make use of (take note: it is in reality not a fuel additive), and to some extent because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often directly near to one another on the car.

So, what's the matter with having AdBlue in the diesel tank? Seeing that AdBlue is mainly deionised water, it's just like pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water do not mix whatsoever and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is particularly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If you put AdBlue into the fuel tank empty it immediately. And obviously never switch on the car - not even to move it to a parking spot. In cases where you did start the vehicle you would in all probability have to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question an important condition to address in an automobile - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines. Water in fuel tank may well cause idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not addressed effectively, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both situations quite swiftly.

Bear in mind however that so long as the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will be completely wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains
