It was close to 5 pm on a Wednesday and though we were assured a dry evening, it had not ceased pouring down rain! James and me were seated talking over the tennis results, waiting around for the seventh fuel drain to arrive. Before long we had the phone call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol station in Doxey and put the wrong fuel in a diesel cobalt blue Daihatsu Rocky lease car by mistake. The poor lady was somewhat distressed by the sounds of it, crying "I can not believe I have destroyed the car! I am just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I totally did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just told her to calm down and not to fret, plus that things like this unfortunately can happen. She managed to move the vehicle to a secure area and, seeing that it was only a short distance away from the office, we could arrive at the lady fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to return to the Travelodge she was residing at.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally a significant situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your fuel tank can cause idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both situations very expediently.

Remember however that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will be completely water-logged and ineffective.
