Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a vehicle parking spot we are able to reach the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important condition to take care of in a vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol can produce idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both cases quite simply.

You should know however that if ever the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will likely be totally water-logged and unusable.

Ahhh, that was a quality night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 on a warm Sunday and we were en route to assist an elder lady after she had put petrol in her diesel white Volkswagen Passat in Stockstreet. She informed us that she had left the petrol station and was broken down in a country lane on route to visit her family. I plugged her location straight into the TomTom and was with her in less than 60 minutes. I got to the destination and removed the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. While I was working she said, "Now I'm getting relatively absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle taking diesel since I'd only bought it a short while back when my former one, which I used for over 25 years, inevitably died". I got the job done and she gave me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. What a precious Essex woman!

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

If you’ve just filled up at a petrol station and the cars starts to act a bit strange you might start to wonder if you accidentally put the wrong fuel in it.

Well, there are a few things to can check that will be able to tell you:

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. If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VAT receipt.
3. Smell it. Diesel and petrol have very distinctly different smells. Anyone familiar with the motor industry should be able to help you with this. Or you could even get another car to park alongside and smell the fuel caps of both, comparing them to determine what the fuel type is.
4. Call us to come out and assess the car. In the majority of cases we will be able to tell if the car has been misfueled before beginning work on it. If we discover that the vehicle does not need a fuel drain, you will only be charged a call-out fee.
