The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored close to a car parking spot we can access the tanks and remove the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question an important condition to address in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel may lead to idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both circumstances quite easily.

Bear in mind however that if the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will be completely wet and useless.

Wrong Fuel Assist Alwalton - Wrong Fuel in Car Alwalton

I had appreciated a terrific day cycling during my afternoon off and felt pleased with myself the following working day as I was en route to aid a new couple on holiday in Alwalton. They'd broken down after adding petrol in their mom's Cadillac STS, and were roughly an hour's travel away. I got there at their car and smiled while I listened to the wife telling her spouse off for turning out to be so foolish. "Exactly how could you actually be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I tried to tell her that this kind of thing happens quite frequently in Cambridgeshire and that it's in reality nothing at all to get worried about, but he yet still had his ear bent by his better half. I felt genuine sympathy for the lad. In any case, I cleaned up and removed all of the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and gave it some right fuel. As they drove away I mouthed bon voyage and pondered on what her indoors would do to me in the event that I made the same mistake... I would personally under no circumstances live it down!

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.
