AdBlue In Your Diesel

All around Hertfordshire we are finding increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination whereby a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is partially due to drivers not being aware of the right way to use it (take note: it is not a fuel additive), and in part due to the fact that the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to each other on the car.

So, what is the trouble with having AdBlue in a diesel car? Seeing that the product is predominantly deionised water, it's like putting water into your tank. Diesel and water do not blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is incredibly corrosive to fuel system hoses and seals and is prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and filters.

In the event that you put AdBlue in the fuel tank get it out at once. And absolutely don't start the motor - not even to shift it to a parking bay. In cases where you did start the vehicle you will likely need to have the full fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious matter to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines. Water in your petrol or diesel can certainly lead to idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out fully, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both situations rather easily.

Take note that so long as the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will undoubtedly be wholly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to parking spot we should be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.}
