It was around six pm on a Wednesday and though we were assured a dry day, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Ryan and I were relaxing there commenting on the weekend's sports rankings, prepared for the sixth job that day to arrive. Finally we received a phone call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had gone to the Esso filling station in Bournmoor and put the wrong fuel in her diesel sky blue Kia Spectra5 rental by mistake. She was very distressed apparently, stating "I still can't believe I've destroyed the car! I'm so used to filling my petrol vehicle I had forgot I was operating a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that such things regrettably do happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a safe area and, seeing that it was just a short distance away from where we were, we were able to arrive at the customer swiftly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could go home to the motel she was living at.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a significant issue to deal with in a car - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel may well cause idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both cases rather simply.
You should know however that in the event that the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one is going to be completely water-logged and ineffective.
Boat Fuel Drains
If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.

Actually it was indeed so quiet that the moment the telephone ultimately rang it made me jump!

- A lot of smoke (more than usual)
- Engine coughing or starting to splutter
