The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated close to parking spot we will be able to reach the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be an important condition to address in a vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel can certainly lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both cases pretty simply.

Be aware however that as long as the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will be completely wet and unusable.

Wrong Fuel Assist Bramshill - Wrong Fuel in Car Bramshill

I enjoyed a terrific day fishing during the weekend and was feeling satisfied the next morning as I set out to assist a new couple vacationing in Bramshill. They'd conked out after putting petrol into their faithful Renault Clio, and they were about half an hour away. I arrived at their position and smirked as I heard to the gal telling her partner off for turning out to be so silly. "How could you actually manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I tried to explain that this goes on on a regular basis in Hampshire and that it's truly nothing to be concerned about, but he still had his ear bent by his missus. Unfortunate guy. Anyways, I extracted the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and gave them some correct fuel. Watching them drive down the road I shouted farewell and considered what her indoors would ask me if ever I made the exact same error... I would never ever hear the end of it!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Bramshill

I'm not too excited about doing the job on weekends, and 2 weeks ago was no different.

He was located in Bramshill hence I was there almost immediately. As I drove up at the rear of the car and started work he told me "Praise the Almighty! I foolishly had my concentration on something else and didn't perceive I've put diesel in my petrol car. Have I brought on some harm as a result of running it?" I explained that there should not be any kind of harm and also I'd remove the contaminated fuel at once. Naturally I drained the wrong fuel from the car and put in the appropriate fuel, and one more content client had the ability to continue his traveling without bother. The gentleman did not stop thanking me, and that is exactly what helps make earning a living on Sundays in Hampshire just a little bit less painful for me personally!

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.
