Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a car parking bay we will be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have successfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious situation to address in an automobile - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank is likely to cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both circumstances rather easily.

Be aware however that so long as the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will be totally wet and useless.
