Motorboat Fuel Drains

So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to parking bay we can access the storage and drain out the fuel. We've successfully done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.

AdBlue In your Fuel

Throughout Hampshire we have noticed a growing number of occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a driver has poured AdBlue right into their diesel tank. This is in part as a consequence of motorists being unsure of how to work with it (please note: it's not a fuel additive), and partially simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are generally directly near to one another on the car.

Now, exactly what is the matter with having AdBlue in a diesel tank?

Seeing that AdBlue is primarily deionised water, it is like pouring water into your tank. Diesel and water do not ever mix in any way and trying to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is highly corrosive to the fuel system lines and seals and is at risk of crystallisation, damaging injectors and fuel filters. If you find you have put AdBlue into the fuel tank get it out at the earliest opportunity. And certainly never crank the vehicle - not even to shift it to a parking place. In cases where you did start the car you may very likely need to have the full fuel system flushed and fuel filters changed.

In the event that you discover yourself to be in this position do not panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination service. Our technicians have got the practical knowledge and experience to get you back on your way quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

I popped the location into the TomTom and was on-scene in less than 60 minutes. I got to the vehicle and extracted the wrong fuel in the car car.

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.
