The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we can gain access to the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious condition to address in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank may bring about idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of fully, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both cases rather simply.

You should know however that if the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and useless.

I got the drain done and she presented me a toffee and said thanks. Such a lovely Nottinghamshire woman!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Stanford on Soar

Now I'm not ever that inclined to running weekends, and a week ago was the same. I'd only just departed the wife and kids filled with a magnificent roast made for us by the better half, and I was en route to sort out a gentleman after he put the incorrect petrol in his metallic silver Volvo S90. He was somewhere in Stanford on Soar so it wouldn't be a long time before I reached him. As I drove up at the rear of the car and got out he explained to me "Thank God! I stupidly had my attention on stuff and failed to ascertain I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I created some harm as a result of running it?" I determined there probably should not be harm and also I would drain the contaminated fuel right away. Needless to say I got the wrong fuel drained from the vehicle and filled it with the correct fuel, and yet another happy motorist could continue their traveling with no fuss. He did not stop saying thanks to me, and this is exactly what tends to make operating on Sundays in Nottinghamshire just that tiny bit less painful in my opinion!
