The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to reach the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel may well bring about idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both situations rather expediently.

Be aware that as long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and ineffective.

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.
