Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be a significant condition to handle in an automobile - especially in modern common-rail engines.
Putting water or AdBlue in fuel may trigger idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both situations fairly simply.
Bear in mind however that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and unusable.

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.

Ahhh, that was a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 am on a warm Monday and we were off to help an old sweetheart after she had put petrol in her diesel well worn Dodge Avenger in Milton Keynes. She told us that she drove away from the filling station forecourt and stranded in a rural lane en route to visit her godchildren. I got the location plugged in the TomTom and arrived within 60 minutes. I arrived at the stricken lady and extracted the contaminated fuel from the car. As I was working she said, "I'm becoming somewhat absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the car working with diesel seeing that I'd just bought it a couple of days ago right after my old car, which I owned for over 30 years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I got the drain completed and she presented me a peppermint and said thanks. Such a precious Buckinghamshire woman!

This was certainly the night shift. It was close to sunrise and nobody was about. It was rather dead up to now, and me and Brian were relaxing looking through a couple of old papers. This was a rare calm moment in Buckinghamshire. Actually it was in fact that tranquil that the moment the phone inevitably rang I leaped! The voice on the phone explained: "I just completed my evening shift and stupidly put petrol in my burgundy red Dodge Sprinter by mistake". We asked him to tell us where he was located and we headed out, ending up in Milton Keynes less than an hour or so later. The fuel was taken out from the motor. He thanked us for coming so quickly. As we were coming back to the depot we spotted two ladies at the edge of the road who seemed to have a puncture. As a result we pulled up and helped them change it, much to their elation.
