Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a car or truck parking spot we are able to gain access to the tanks and remove the fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually an important matter to address in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank will likely bring about idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of than water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both situations rather quickly.

You should know however that any time the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will be completely water-logged and unusable.
