The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a car or truck parking spot we can reach the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually a significant matter to deal with in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in fuel can certainly produce idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both situations quite expediently.

Be aware that as long as the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will undoubtedly be completely wet and ineffective.


Wrong Fuel in Car in BS5 Postcode - Whitehall Misfueling

What a great night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 am on a rainy Wednesday and we were on the way to assist an old lady who put petrol in her diesel maroon Renault Espace in Whitehall. I had been told she had driven away from the petrol station forecourt and was stranded on a backwater lane en route to see her grandchildren. I punched the location in the Satnav and was on-scene in less than 60 minutes. I turned up at the vehicle and removed the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. While I was doing it she said to me, "I have been getting quite forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle needing diesel because I had only just acquired it a week ago when my previous one, which I'd used for over twenty years, inevitably died". I completed the job and she presented me a peppermint and said thanks. What a precious Bristol lady!

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.
