We can help you with these mis-fuel mistakes.

AdBlue In Diesel

All over Devon we are noticing more and more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby an individual has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is in part a result of motorists not knowing the right way to to make use of (important: it is in actual fact not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally right adjacent to one another on the vehicle.

Well, precisely what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? As the product is mostly ionised water, it's nearly as good as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to mix whatsoever and attempting to run a diesel car on water is not going to work. Additionally, the urea is very corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and filters.

If perhaps you have put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it drained as soon as possible. And certainly be careful not to switch on the motor - not even to shift it into a parking spot. In cases where you have started the vehicle you would in all probability have to have the whole fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be a serious situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water inside your diesel or petrol can easily bring about idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both circumstances quite easily.

Take note though that as long as the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will be totally wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps polluted fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a car parking bay we will be able to access the storage and drain out the fuel.
