AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around West Sussex we have encountered progressively more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a driver has put AdBlue directly into their diesel tank. This is to a certain extent thanks to people not understanding how to to make use of (important: it's not a fuel additive), and partially because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to one another on the automobile.

Now, exactly what is the problem with putting AdBlue in the diesel car? Seeing that AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is actually as bad as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water isn't going to work. Additionally, the urea is extremely corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

In the event that you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And absolutely don't start up the engine - not even to relocate it away from the pump. In the instance that you did start the vehicle you would very likely need to have the entire fuel system flushed and fuel filters replaced.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question an important issue to take care of in a car - specifically in modern day common-rail engines. Having water in fuel tank will often lead to idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both circumstances quite expediently.

You should know though that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will likely be totally water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a car parking spot we will be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}
