Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to gain access to the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases an important condition to handle in a vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel is going to result in idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both cases rather expediently.

Keep in mind however that as long as the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and unusable.

• Engine coughing or starting to splutter
• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
