Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to an automobile parking bay we should be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually a serious situation to take care of in a car - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel tank may cause idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of properly, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of than water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both situations fairly quickly.

Bear in mind however that if the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

1. How is the car responding? There are some very common misfuel symptoms which can be a good indicator of wrong fuel:
• Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel
• A lot of smoke (more than usual)
• Engine coughing or starting to splutter
• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
2. Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded.
