It was about five pm on a Thursday and even though we were promised a dry day, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Dan and I were relaxing talking over the rugby, ready for the 6th call to come in. Inevitably we received a call from a young lady on a company trip who had arrived at the BP petrol garage in Trow Green and put the wrong fuel in her diesel stylish Cadillac CTS-V rental. The unfortunate lady was somewhat troubled it seemed, telling me "I can't believe I have messed up the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I completely forgot I was running a diesel!" I just instructed her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that things like this regrettably often happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle into a secure space and, seeing as it was only a short distance off from us, we could find the woman right away. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was staying at. Even though we got pretty soaked, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away calm and a lot less stressed. A job in Gloucestershire well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is without question a significant situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol will likely contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove than water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both circumstances quite swiftly.

Be aware that so long as the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one is going to be completely wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a car parking bay we can gain access to the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.

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.
