The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant matter to address in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel will cause idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out properly, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both circumstances quite expediently.

Take note that any time the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to access the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.

Wrong Fuel Assist East Chaldon - Wrong Fuel in Car East Chaldon

I enjoyed a fantastic evening fishing on my off day and was feeling delighted with myself the next working day as I set out to aid a young couple on vacation in East Chaldon. They had pulled over after inserting the wrong fuel in their racing green BMW Z8, and were approximately half an hour away. I turned up at their location and smiled to myself while I heard to the gal berating her hubby for being so silly. "Precisely how could you actually find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I tried to clarify that this situation comes to pass constantly in Dorset and that it's really nothing to get worried about, but he all the same had an earful. Poor guy. Anyways, I removed the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. Watching while they drove off I waved so long and pondered on what my missus would do to me if perhaps I did the very same thing... I would never hear the end of it!

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.
