AdBlue In Diesel

All around Argyll and Bute we are finding increasingly more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby somebody has put AdBlue directly into their diesel fuel tank. This is mainly a result of motorists not understanding how to work with it (take note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are usually right next to each other on the car.

So, precisely what is the issue with putting AdBlue in a diesel car? As AdBlue is primarily ionised water, it is just like putting water in to your tank. Diesel and water really do not mix in the least and attempting to run a diesel car on water cannot work. In addition, the urea is very corrosive to your fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystalising, damaging injectors and fuel filters.

If in case you put AdBlue in a fuel tank get it drained at once. And most certainly don't crank the motor - not even to shift it from the pump. Assuming you did start the vehicle you may very likely have to have the whole fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious matter to take care of in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines. Putting water inside your petrol or diesel can contribute to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both cases rather swiftly.

Be aware though that as long as the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one is going to be completely wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or even polluted fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or moored close to a vehicle parking bay we can gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.}
