Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be an important matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel is likely to result in idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both situations quite swiftly.
You should know though that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one is going to be totally wet and useless.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked close to a vehicle parking bay we are able to reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.
Wrong Fuel in Car in BH22 Postcode - Ferndown Misfueling
Ahhh, that was a good night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 on a sunny Sunday and I was en route to help an older woman who put petrol in her diesel dirty red Vauxhall Signum in Ferndown. She told us that she had left the filling station and was pulled up in a country lane on route to pay a visit to her godchildren. I punched the location into the Satnav and was with her within 60 minutes. I arrived at the destination and removed the wrong fuel out of the car. Whilst I was doing the drain she said, "I'm getting fairly absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the car needing diesel seeing that I had only purchased it several days back because my old car, which I used for about twenty years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I completed the drain and she gifted me a toffee and said thanks. Such a delightful Dorset woman!

- 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.
