It was just after five pm on a Saturday and although we were promised a dry and fresh day, it hadn't given up on raining! Dan and me were relaxing going over the rugby rankings, waiting around for the 8th telephone call for the day to arrive. Eventually we received the call from a young lady on a company trip who had pulled into the BP petrol station in Fulflood and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel Ferarri red BMW M5 hire car in error. She was very troubled apparently, crying "I simply can't believe that I have wrecked the car! I'm so used to filling my petrol car I completely didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I told her to settle back and not to worry, and also that these things do happen.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured close to an automobile parking bay we are able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually a serious situation to address in a vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol will lead to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both cases pretty easily.

Bear in mind that any time the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and unusable.

I had enjoyed a wonderful evening golfing during my day off and felt satisfied with myself the following working day as I headed out to help a new couple vacationing in Fulflood. They had broken down after putting the wrong fuel in their cream BMW, and were roughly half an hour away. I turned up at their car and smiled to myself while I listened to the gal telling her man off for turning out to be so stupid. "Exactly how could you conceivably find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I wanted to clarify that this happens frequently in Hampshire and that it's nothing at all to worry about, nevertheless he in spite of everything had an earful by his wife. Unlucky lad. Anyways, I drained out the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and gave it some appropriate fuel. While watching them drive off I shouted farewell and thought about what my missus would do to me in the event that I made the very same mistake... I would never ever hear the end of it!
