It was around 7 pm on a Thursday and although we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't ceased raining! Ray and I were seated talking over the weekend's footy, waiting around for the 8th call of the day to come in. Before long we got a phone call from a woman on a company excursion who had gone to the Esso petrol station in Lower Hartwell and filled petrol in a diesel uncle's Nissan Armada lease car. She was rather distressed it seemed, telling me "I still can't believe I've ruined the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember that I was using a diesel!" I instructed her to calm down and not to worry, and that these things sadly happen. She was able to move the car to a secure area and, since it was just a short distance from our van, we were able to get to the lady without delay. The contaminated fuel was taken out and she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was lodging at.

The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely a significant situation to deal with in a car - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol will result in idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both cases quite expediently.

Keep in mind that if ever the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one will probably be totally wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we can access the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.

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.
