It was before 7 pm on a Saturday and while we were guaranteed a dry evening, it had not ceased pouring down rain! James and I were sitting there going over the footy results, waiting around for the next call of the day to arrive. Eventually we had a phone call from a girl on a business trip who had arrived at the Esso petrol station in Elder Street and put petrol in a diesel dark red Peugeot Expert rental car in error. She was pretty irritated it seemed, crying "I still cannot believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember I was running a diesel!" We instructed her to relax and not to worry, and also that things like this regrettably often happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a protected space and, because it was just a short distance off from where we were, we were able to arrive at the woman right away. The incorrect fuel was taken out so she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was residing at.

The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be an important condition to handle in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol will likely lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both cases fairly expediently.

Take note however that any time the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will probably be totally wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a car parking spot we are able to reach the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.

The owner of a trusty Toyota Solara was sorry that he put unleaded in his diesel automobile when he got onto the road and it spluttered and ground to a halt.

To be truthful, when he first called us he said he would like to check around, but he called us back before long because our price and on-scene times were the best. Not surprisingly, our fuel drainer had him doing his deliveries within the time we had cited.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Elder Street

I am not actually excessively interested in doing the job Sundays, and a week ago was the same. I had just come away from the family after eating a fantastic dinner prepared for us by the better half, and I was on the way to help a fellow who had put the wrong petrol in his canary yellow Range Rover Evoque. He was situated in Elder Street thus it wouldn't be a long time before I arrived with him. Just as I arrived right behind the vehicle and got out he told me "Praise the Almighty! I foolishly had my attention on other things and did not grasp that I've put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I brought about problems simply by driving it?" I said that truth be told there should not be damage and that I'd personally drain the fuel at once. Obviously I removed the contaminated fuel from the vehicle and put in some correct fuel, and so yet another content client could carry on with their traveling without bother. He did not stop thanking me, and this is actually what makes carrying out work on weekends in Essex just a small bit better for me!

A driver who had unfortunately put the wrong fuel in his diesel brother's Renault Modus contacted us for assistance at the Murco petrol filling station in Elder Street. He had decided to top up before proceeding on to the nearby recreation park but had put the wrong fuel in his car. "I put unleaded instead of diesel which unfortunately wasn't a good way to start to our holiday break." It was definitely no problem at all for our technical engineer to go and do the fuel drain. We hope everyone enjoyed their holiday break.

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.

Likely Misfuel Signs and symptoms:

Here's a list of the most common wrong fuel symptoms:

  • Losing engine power
  • Car stalling, jumping or even hiccuping
  • A tough time starting the car
  • Abnormal fumes
