Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked near to an automobile parking spot we can reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've successfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.

AdBlue In Your Diesel

In Staffordshire we have found increasingly more occurrences of AdBlue contamination where a motorist has poured AdBlue inside their diesel tank. This is in part as a consequence of drivers not knowing the way to use it (please note: it's in reality not a fuel additive), and partly simply because the inlets for diesel and AdBlue are normally right next to one another on the car.

So, what's the problem with putting AdBlue in your diesel vehicle?

Because AdBlue is mostly deionised water, it's almost the same as pouring water in to your tank. Diesel and water really don't blend in the slightest and attempting to run a diesel car on water will never work. Additionally, the urea is fairly corrosive to your fuel system lines and seals and is more prone to crystallisation, damaging injectors and filters. If you put AdBlue in your fuel tank remove it as quickly as possible. And of course be careful not to turn over the car - not even to shift it into a parking bay. In the instance that you have started the vehicle you may probably need to have the entire fuel system cleaned and fuel filters changed out.

In case you find yourself in this scenario don’t panic! Contact us, the UK’s Number one fuel contamination service. Our experts have the technical skills and experience to get you back on the road quickly and efficiently, without mess or fuss.

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.
