It was close to 10 pm on a Monday and though we were promised a rainless day, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ryan and I were relaxing there talking about the weekend's rugby results, ready for the sixth call of the day to arrive. In due time we received a call from a woman on a company excursion who had pulled into the Tesco filling garage in Deers Green and put the wrong fuel in her diesel cream Ford Taurus hire car by mistake. She was quite irritated apparently, telling me "I can't believe that I have wrecked the car! I am so used to filling up my petrol car that I totally forgot that I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to worry, and also that things like this regrettably happen. She was able to get the car into a protected position and, since it was just a short distance away from our van, we could reach the woman right away. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she could return to the motel she was living in. Despite the fact that we got extremely wet, it was all worth it to see her drive off satisfied and a lot less apprehensive. Another misfuel correction in Essex well done in my mind!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated near to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually an important issue to address in a motor vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel is likely to trigger idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both situations rather expediently.

You should know that whenever the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will likely be totally wet and unusable.


Wrong Fuel in Car in CB11 Postcode - Deers Green Misfueling

What a fantastic night of sleep! 7:00 on a sunny Wednesday and I was on my way to assist an old sweetheart who had put petrol in her diesel metallic red Honda Prelude in Deers Green. I'd been informed she had driven away from the filling station and broken down in a backwater lane on route to see her grandchildren. I popped her location into the Satnav and got there in less than an hour or so. I reached the car and extracted the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. Whilst I was doing the work she explained, "I have been getting fairly forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle using diesel as I had only just purchased it a short while back because my old car, which I had for about twenty five years, eventually gave up the ghost". I got the job completed and she offered me a Murray mint and said thank you. What a delightful Essex lady!

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.
