The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious condition to handle in a car - especially in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel can cause idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both situations fairly swiftly.

Keep in mind however that if the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.

A lady from Harelaw with her kids in her diesel sombre grey Volvo850 had filled her car with £50 of petrol at the Shell petrol station.

We reassured her that everything should be okay and that she would be in action in no time at all.

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.
