As long as the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a vehicle parking spot we are able to access the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.
Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually a serious matter to address in a vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.
Having water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank may bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both circumstances fairly easily.
Remember that any time the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will undoubtedly be totally wet and useless.
