Do you or your employees usually misfuel your vehicle? We can solve any associated issues.

AdBlue Contamination

In East Sussex we are identifying a growing number of instances of AdBlue contamination whereby someone has poured AdBlue into their diesel tank. This is to a degree caused by drivers not being totally sure the way to to make use of (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and partly because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to each other on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the trouble with putting AdBlue in a diesel vehicle? Seeing that the product is predominantly deionised water, it is actually nearly as good as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water will not mix in the least and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is fairly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you put AdBlue into a fuel tank get it out as quickly as possible. And definitely take care not to turn over the car - not even to move it off of the pump. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you will in all probability have to have the full fuel system flushed and filters changed.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally an important issue to take care of in an automobile - specifically in modern common-rail engines. Having water in the fuel tank will likely lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of than water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both cases fairly simply.

Keep in mind however that any time the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will probably be totally wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to parking spot we can gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.}
