AdBlue In your Fuel
All around Scottish Borders we have encountered a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination wherein a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel tank. This is to a degree a result of motorists not being totally sure the right way to to make use of (pay attention: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are often right next to each other on the car.
Now, exactly what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle? Because AdBlue is mainly ionised water, it is nearly as good as pouring water in your tank. Diesel and water don't blend in any way and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is seriously corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters.
If you end up in this predicament don?t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK?s Number one fuel contamination service. Our experts have got the technical competence and experience to get you back on your way swiftly and efficiently, without mess or hassle.
Fuel contaminated with water
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally an important issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in your fuel may result in idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove than water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both cases pretty swiftly.
Take note however that if ever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one is going to be thoroughly wet and useless.
Marine Fuel Drains

It was so tranquil that the instant the phone rang I jumped with surprise! The motorist on the phone stated: "I have completed my overnight shift and foolishly put petrol in my diesel Honda in error". We instructed him to tell us where exactly the car was and we hit the road, reaching him in Duns under 30 minutes later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed from the vehicle and he thanked us for getting there so promptly. While we were returning to the depot we saw two young women at the edge of the highway who seemed like they had a flat tyre. So we pulled up to change it, to their delight.
