It was just before 7 pm on a Saturday and while we were assured a rainless afternoon, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Ray and I were relaxing going over the weekend's football results, at the ready for the sixth fuel drain to arrive. Eventually we had a call from a girl on a business trip who had arrived at the Esso filling station in Seven Star Green and put the wrong fuel in a diesel shiny Hyundai HED-5 rental in error. She was pretty irritated by the sounds of it, crying "I cannot believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I had forgot that I was operating a diesel!" We asked her to settle back and not to fret, and that such things sadly often happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a secure space and, since it was just a short distance away from us, we were able to arrive at her quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she was able to return to the motel she was staying at. Even though we got pretty wet, it was all rewarding seeing her drive home relaxed and much less stressed.

The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel container laying at the rear of your premises containing out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous domestic and commercial premises in Essex to take care of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to get rid of and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in a storage shed, if we can reach it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually a serious issue to address in an automobile - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel can potentially contribute to idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both circumstances quite swiftly.

Be aware though that in the event that the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and useless.

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.
