It was just before 5 pm on a Tuesday and though we were promised a dry day, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ray and I were resting there talking over the recent golf results, waiting for the next fuel drain of the day to come in. Before long we got the call from a girl on a business trip who had gone to the BP petrol garage in East Dean and put petrol in a diesel brand new Toyota FJ Cruiser rental car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was very irritated apparently, telling me "I still cannot believe I've destroyed the car! I'm so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I instructed her to relax and not to fret, and that these things sadly often happen. She had managed to move the vehicle to a safe area and, seeing as it was only a short distance from our van, we were able to get to the customer without delay. The bad fuel was taken out so she could go home to the Premier Inn she was living at. Although we got fairly soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive off contented and much less stressed. One more job in East Sussex well done in my books!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually an important condition to handle in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol may well produce idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both cases quite swiftly.

Remember that any time the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored close to a car parking bay we will be able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.

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 VAT 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.
