AdBlue In Diesel

In Warwickshire we are encountering a lot more examples of AdBlue contamination when a person has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is partially due to people not being totally sure how to to make use of (take note: it's not a fuel additive), and in part because the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly next to each other on the vehicle.

So, precisely what is the issue with having AdBlue in your diesel tank? Seeing as the product is predominantly ionised water, it's like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water don't mix at all and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. Moreover, the urea is seriously corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is at risk of crystalising, blocking injectors and filters.

If you find you have put AdBlue in your fuel tank drain it immediately. And most definitely do not crank the engine - not even to maneuver it away from the pump. In cases where you did start the vehicle you would likely have to have the full fuel system cleaned and filters replaced.

Fuel contaminated with water

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually a serious matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines. Having water in petrol or diesel may trigger idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both cases quite swiftly.

Be aware though that whenever the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

We have completed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.}
