It was just before 10 pm on a Tuesday and while we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't given up on pouring! Mark and me were resting there commenting on the weekend's football rankings, waiting around for the 8th call to arrive. Inevitably we got the phone call from a woman on a business expedition who had gone to the Texaco petrol garage in Elworth and put petrol in her diesel red Audi Cabriolet rental in error. She was somewhat agitated by the sounds of it, saying "I cannot believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car I had forgot I was using a diesel!" I just instructed her to calm down and not to fret, plus that such things sadly do happen. She was able to maneuver the car into a safe position and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes off from us, we could arrive at the woman quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was staying in. Although we got fairly wet, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive off contented and less stressed. One more misfuel correction in Cheshire well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly an important matter to take care of in an automobile - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol will likely trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both cases very simply.

Remember however that so long as the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will probably be completely wet and ineffective.

I got there at their position and smiled while I listened to the gal telling her husband off for turning out to be so stupid.

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.
