It was close to 10 pm on a Saturday and though we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Ryan and I were sitting commenting on the weekend's golf rankings, waiting for the sixth job of the day to arrive. Inevitably we had a call from a lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Shell filling garage in Great Chilton and put petrol in her diesel pristine Mercedes-Benz M-Class lease car. The unfortunate thing was quite agitated apparently, stating "I can not believe that I've destroyed the car! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol car I totally didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I told her to calm down and not to worry, also that these things unfortunately often happen. She managed to move the vehicle to a safe position and, since it was only a few miles off from us, we could reach the woman without delay. The wrong fuel was removed and she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was living in. Despite the fact we got very drenched, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive off satisfied and much less concerned. Yet another job in County Durham well done in my mind!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question an important condition to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol will often bring about idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed effectively, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we can handle both circumstances very expediently.

Bear in mind though that so long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured close to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to reach the storage and drain out the fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.

A customer working in Great Chilton called us as soon as she had managed to get her misfueled automobile to work. She had put unleaded in her diesel canary yellow Lexus IS and, like many prior to her, thought that she could basically fill her vehicle with diesel and it'd be fine. The vehicle was chugging and then it cut out when she arrived at the the front of her work. We quickly started on the fuel drain following her call and had it sorted in an hour whilst she was working. She came outside soon after and thanked us saying, "I'm very relieved you sorted my vehicle."

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 VA 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.
