Do you or your employees frequently misfuel your car? We can fix any related problems.

AdBlue Contamination

All over Northamptonshire we have found progressively more cases of AdBlue contamination whereby a motorist has poured AdBlue right into their diesel fuel tank. This is mostly a result of drivers not knowing the right way to work with it (important: it is not a fuel additive), and partly due to the fact that the filler caps for diesel and AdBlue are frequently right near to each other on the vehicle.

So, what's the issue with putting AdBlue in the diesel vehicle? Since AdBlue is mostly ionised water, it is as bad as pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water does not work. In addition, the urea is particularly corrosive to fuel system pipes and seals and is susceptible to crystalising, clogging injectors and filters.

Assuming you poured AdBlue into your fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And most certainly never turn over the motor - not even to move it away from the pump. If perhaps you did start the vehicle you would very likely need to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

Water contaminated fuel

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally a significant condition to address in a car - especially in modern day common-rail engines. Water in the fuel can potentially produce idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both situations very swiftly.

Keep in mind though that if the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one is going to be totally wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to parking bay we are able to gain access to the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.}
