The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a significant issue to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel is likely to result in idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both circumstances fairly simply.

Be aware that if the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will undoubtedly be totally wet and useless.

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel reservoir placed in the back of your premises with old, unusable or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to quite a few private and commercial properties in Gloucestershire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

It truly was the night shift. It was roughly sunrise and hardly anyone was around. It was quite uneventful up to now, and John and I were sitting around browsing a number of old newspapers. That was an uncommon quiet hour in Gloucestershire. It was that tranquil that the moment the telephone finally rang it made me start! The motorist on the phone explained: "I have only just finished my evening shift and stupidly filled petrol in a diesel expensive BMW 6 Series by mistake". I asked him to let us know where the vehicle was and we headed out, reaching him in Dudbridge less than half an hour later. The fuel was cleaned from the vehicle. He said thanks for arriving so quickly. While we were going back to the office we found two women at the side of the highway who appeared to have a puncture. So we stopped and helped them change it, much to their elation.

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.
