If there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to access the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.
AdBlue Contamination
All over Hertfordshire we have noticed more and more occurrences of AdBlue contamination when a person has put AdBlue straight into their diesel fuel tank. This is to a degree as a consequence of drivers not understanding how to work with it (note: it is actually not a fuel additive), and in part simply because the filler necks for diesel and AdBlue are often directly adjacent to each other on the automobile.
So, what's the issue with having AdBlue in a diesel tank?
As the product is primarily deionised water, it is as bad as putting water in your tank. Diesel and water tend not to blend at all and attempting to run a diesel car on water will not work. Also, the urea is incredibly corrosive to the fuel system pipes and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, blocking injectors and fuel filters. In case you put AdBlue in your fuel tank get it drained right away. And definitely be careful not to start up the car - not even to move it off of the pump. If perhaps you have started the car you will almost certainly have to have the complete fuel system purged and fuel filters changed.
In the event that you end up in this position don’t panic! Call us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination company. Our engineers have got the practical know-how and working experience to get you back on the road quickly and efficiently, no mess, no hassle.

We carried out a wrong fuel removal job outside a beautiful residence in Hebing End recently. "I put unleaded in my diesel car and was able to more or less arrive at home when my car cut out." Our specialist went out, despite the fact that it was fairly late at night, and performed a standard fuel drain and cleanse on the khaki green Honda Civic GX to everyone's satisfaction.

This really was what we call the night shift. It was close to dawn and nobody was about. It was pretty quiet up to now, and John and I were relaxing reading a number of old papers. It was a rare quiet hour in Hertfordshire. Actually it was in fact that calm that the instant the telephone finally rang it made me jump! The voice on the other end told me: "I have only just ended my overnight shift and foolishly put petrol in a diesel son's Isuzu Amigo in error". I asked him to let us know where exactly the car was and we left, arriving in Hebing End under an hour or so later. The contaminated fuel was cleared from the vehicle and he thanked us profusely for getting there so rapidly. As we were returning to the office we saw two young ladies at the side of the highway who appeared to have a puncture. Obviously we pulled over to change it, much to their elation.

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.
