It was close to 8 pm on a Saturday and although we were promised a dry and fresh night, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! James and me were resting commenting on the rugby results, prepared for the 8th job that day to arrive. Before long we had a phone call from a woman on a company trip who had pulled into the Esso petrol garage in Bradley Green and filled petrol in a diesel red BMW Z4 M hire car. The poor thing was very irritated apparently, crying "I can not believe I've messed up the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I totally forgot that I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to relax and not to be concerned, and that things like this sadly often happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle into a secure space and, seeing as it was only a few miles from the office, we could get to her right away. The wrong fuel was removed and she could return to the hotel she was residing in. Even though we got extremely wet, it was all rewarding to see her drive home satisfied and much less apprehensive. One more misfuel correction in Gloucestershire done well in my books!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually a serious issue to address in an automobile - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel can result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied fully, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both situations pretty expediently.

Take note that so long as the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will be completely wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.

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.

• 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.
