The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important issue to address in a car - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel will likely produce idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain than water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both cases rather simply.

Remember however that in the event that the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will probably be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated close to a car or truck parking spot we can access the storage and drain out the fuel.
