The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a car parking spot we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant condition to address in a vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol is likely to contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of than water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both situations quite easily.

Take note though that as long as the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will probably be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel Assist Avening - Wrong Fuel in Car Avening

I had appreciated a wonderful evening fishing on the weekend and was feeling satisfied the following day as I headed out to help a new couple who were on vacation in Avening. They pulled over after filling diesel into their old Ford Ranger, and they were around an hour away. I arrived at their car and laughed while I listened to the lady telling her man off for turning out to be so silly. "Exactly how could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I tried to clarify that this problem takes place quite frequently in Gloucestershire and that it is nothing to worry about, however he in spite of everything got his ear bent. I felt sorry for the guy. Anyhow, I extracted all the polluted fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled it up with the right fuel. Watching while they drove away I shouted good bye and considered what her indoors would say to me in the event that I made the very same error... I would personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!

It can't be nice being stranded in a automobile full of the improper fuel in the middle of the street.

A woman from Avening with her little ones in her diesel sky blue Ford Taurus had filled her vehicle with £40 of petrol at the station. She contacted us sobbing and genuinely upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel car previously and didn't know what could happen to her car in doing so. We reassured her that all would be okay and that she would be back in action in no time at all. When we got there she was still upset but while our engineer got to work on the fuel drain she calmed down because she discovered that help was at hand and her car wasn't unfixable. She soon enough brightened up and was up and running saying, "I just can't believe my luck putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Specifically with the children in the back."

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.
