Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally a significant matter to handle in an automobile - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in fuel tank will likely trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of fully, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both cases fairly simply.

Remember that if the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will be totally wet and unusable.

Wrong Fuel Assist Milford - Wrong Fuel in Car Milford

I'd had a wonderful evening cycling during the weekend and was feeling contented with myself the following morning as I headed out to assist a new couple vacationing in Milford. They'd stopped after filling the wrong fuel in their compact Hyundai Sonata, and were approximately half an hour away. I emerged at their position and smirked while I heard to the gal chastising her hubby for being so foolish. "How could you conceivably be able to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I wanted to explain that this situation goes on on daily basis in Staffordshire and that it's nothing at all to get worried about, however he all the same had his ear bent. Unfortunate guy. Anyhow, I removed the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled them up with the proper fuel. While watching them drive down the road I waved farewell and pondered on what her indoors would say to me in the event that I made the same mistake... I would never ever hear the end of it!

How to find out if I put the wrong fuel in my car?

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.

Well, there are a few things to can check that will be able to tell you:

1. How is the car responding? There are some very common misfuel symptoms which can be a good indicator of wrong fuel:
• Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel
• A lot of smoke (more than usual)
• Engine coughing or starting to splutter
• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
2. Look at your fuel receipt. It will state clearly if you filled up with diesel or unleaded. If you don’t have the receipt, you can often return to the petrol station where you filled up and give them the date and time (and pump) where you refueled and they will often be able to give you a VAT receipt.
3. Smell it. Diesel and petrol have very distinctly different smells. Anyone familiar with the motor industry should be able to help you with this. Or you could even get another car to park alongside and smell the fuel caps of both, comparing them to determine what the fuel type is.
4. Call us to come out and assess the car. In the majority of cases we will be able to tell if the car has been misfueled before beginning work on it. If we discover that the vehicle does not need a fuel drain, you will only be charged a call-out fee.
