Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to an automobile parking spot we can access the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've carried out 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 definitely a serious matter to handle in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol will often contribute to idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both cases pretty quickly.

Remember however that any time the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

This was exactly what we call an unsociable time to be up. It was close to 2:30am and noone was about. It was quite quiet up to now, and me and Brian were loafing around looking at some old magazines. It was an uncommon peaceful time in Hampshire. Actually it was in fact that tranquil that when my mobile ultimately rang I leaped! The person said: "I have only just completed my overnight shift and foolishly poured the wrong fuel in the diesel precious Cadillac CTS-V in error". I got him to tell us where the vehicle was situated and we set off, getting to him in Abbotts Ann not as much as an hour or so later. The contaminated fuel was taken out from the car and he said thanks for coming so promptly. As we were returning to the depot we noticed two young women on the side of the highway who appeared to have a flat. Obviously we pulled over to help them change it, to their elation.

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.
