It was about 6 pm on a Friday and while we were promised a rainless day, it had not ceased raining! Brian and I were sitting commenting on the weekend's golf rankings, at the ready for the sixth call that day to arrive. In due time we got a call from a lady on a business trip who had pulled into the Esso filling garage in Upper Woolhampton and filled petrol in her diesel mint green Audi A5 lease car. The poor thing was somewhat distressed it seemed, telling me "I still can't believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I am just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I had didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I asked her to settle back and not to worry, plus that these things regrettably often happen. She had managed to get the car into a protected spot and, since it was no more than a few miles off from where we were, we could find her fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she was able to get back to the hotel she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got very wet, it was all worth it to watch her drive off relaxed and less concerned. One more misfuel correction in Berkshire well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to an automobile parking spot we can reach the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually a serious matter to deal with in a car - particularly in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel tank may well result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both circumstances pretty easily.

Bear in mind though that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will be completely wet and ineffective.

It truly was what is called an unsociable time to be awake. It was about 3:30am and noone was about. It had been fairly dead so far, and me and Ryan were relaxing looking through a couple of old articles. That was an uncommon quiet time in Berkshire. It was that quiet that the moment my mobile rang I jumped with surprise! The voice on the phone explained: "I've only just completed my evening shift and stupidly put the wrong fuel in the diesel work's BMW 5 Series in error". We got him to tell us where exactly he was situated and we left, arriving in Upper Woolhampton under 30 minutes later. The incorrect fuel was taken out from the motor. He said thank you for arriving so fast. While we were going back to the depot we saw two ladies at the side of the highway who looked like they had a flat. As a result we got out to change it, much to their elation.

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.
