The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a vehicle parking bay we can access the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant matter to take care of in a car - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel will cause idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not remedied effectively, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove than water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both situations fairly simply.

Keep in mind that so long as the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will likely be thoroughly wet and useless.

A lady working in Flitton called us after she tried to get her wrong fueled vehicle to the office. She had filled the wrong fuel in her diesel daughter's Citron Picasso and, like many people prior to her, assumed that she could just fill her vehicle with diesel and it'd be no problem. The car was coughing and then it stopped when she got to the the front of her office. We quickly went to work on the fuel drain following her call and got it sorted within an hour while she was working.

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.
