It was just after five pm on a Monday and although we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it had not stopped pouring! James and me were relaxing going over the sports, waiting for the next fuel drain of the day to come in. Inevitably we got the phone call from a girl on a company expedition who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling station in Moorend and filled petrol in her diesel sombre grey Hyundai Sonata lease car. The poor thing was somewhat agitated by the sounds of it, saying "I still can't believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I am just so used to filling my petrol car that I totally did not remember I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, also that things like this sadly often happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle to a safe space and, since it was no more than a short distance away from our van, we could reach the lady almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was drained so she was able to return to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Although we got really wet, it was all rewarding to see her drive home relaxed and not so apprehensive. Yet another misfuel correction in Derbyshire well done in my mind!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be a significant condition to handle in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol can easily bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both cases rather simply.

Be aware though that whenever the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one is going to be thoroughly wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.

    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.
