Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated close to parking bay we will be able to access the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious matter to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol may well contribute to idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both cases very expediently.

You should know though that whenever the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one is going to be completely wet and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Great Cheverell

I'm not that enthusiastic about working on Sundays, and a week ago was no different. I had only just come away from home after having a fantastic lunch made by the better half, and I was on my way to help a man because he filled the wrong petrol in his super Hyundai. He was only in Great Cheverell so it wouldn't be a long time before I reached him. Just as I arrived right behind the car and got busy draining he explained to me "Thank God! I stupidly had my concentration on other stuff and didn't perceive I had put diesel in my petrol car. I need to know if I inflicted any kind of harm as a result of driving it?" I explained that there shouldn't be damage and that also I'd personally get the fuel drained at once. Naturally I got the contaminated fuel drained from the car and put in some suitable fuel, and so yet another delighted client was able to carry on with his trip without the need for bother. He could hardly stop thanking me, and this is actually what tends to make carrying out work on Sundays in Wiltshire just that little bit better for me personally!

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.
