It was just after 5 pm on a Thursday and even though we were promised a rainless night, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Paul and I were sitting there talking about the weekend's golf, waiting for the sixth call that day to arrive. In due time we received a phone call from a young lady on a company expedition who had pulled into the Tesco filling garage in Britannia and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel dark red Land Rover Defender 90 lease car. The poor thing was rather affected by the sounds of it, saying "I cannot believe I've destroyed the car! I'm so used to filling up my petrol car that I completely didn't remember I was running a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that these things sadly often happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a safe space and, because it was just a few minutes from where we were, we were able to find her right away. The bad fuel was drained so she was able to return to the Travelodge she was residing in. Despite the fact we got extremely soaked, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive off contented and not so anxious. One more job in Lancashire done well in my mind!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question an important situation to take care of in a vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol can potentially produce idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out when compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both circumstances rather quickly.
You should know though that whenever the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and useless.
Boat Fuel Drains
If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to an automobile parking spot we should be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.
