If you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked near to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually an important situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank is going to trigger idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both situations very simply.

Be aware though that as long as the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one is going to be totally wet and unusable.

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.
