Motorboat Fuel Drains

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a serious situation to handle in an automobile - especially in advanced common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel will contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not remedied correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both cases fairly easily.

Bear in mind that any time the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will probably be totally water-logged and unusable.

• Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
