It was close to 7 pm on a Tuesday and even though we were promised a dry day, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Paul and me were sitting talking over the rugby rankings, at the ready for the sixth telephone call that day to come in. Inevitably we got the call from a lady on a company excursion who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling garage in Stanbridge and put petrol in a diesel clean white Peugeot 505 rental. She was fairly affected apparently, saying "I simply can't believe I have messed up the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, also that things like this unfortunately can happen. She had managed to relocate the car to a protected position and, seeing that it was only a few miles off from us, we could reach her rather quickly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could go home to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Despite the fact we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth the effort to see her drive home contented and less anxious. One more job in Dorset well done in my opinion!

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


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is certainly a serious issue to take care of in a vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel will likely result in idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both situations very quickly.

Remember that so long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we can reach the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.

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.
