The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, can be a significant condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank will likely result in idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both cases rather quickly.

Remember that so long as the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured close enough to a car parking spot we should be able to gain access to the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.

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.
