It was after 8 pm on a Thursday and although we were assured a rainless evening, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Mark and I were resting going over the weekend's tennis, waiting for the seventh call for the day to come in. Before long we received a call from a girl on a company trip who had arrived at the Tesco petrol station in Brown Heath and put petrol in her diesel navy blue Volkswagen Eurovan rental car by mistake. She was fairly agitated by the sounds of it, saying "I still cannot believe I have ruined the car! I'm just so used to putting petrol in my petrol car I had forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I just instructed her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and that these things regrettably often happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a protected area and, since it was only a short distance away from our van, we were able to get to her without delay. The wrong fuel was extracted and she could return to the motel she was staying in. Despite the fact that we got pretty drenched, it was all rewarding to see her drive off calm and a lot less apprehensive. Yet another fuel drain in Hampshire well done in my mind!

The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your fuel is likely to contribute to idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both situations very expediently.

You should know though that so long as the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored close to a car or truck parking spot we are able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.

Just had a great night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 on a sunny Wednesday and we were off to assist an old woman after she put contaminated fuel in her diesel precious Vauxhall Vivaro in Brown Heath. She told us that she had driven away from the petrol station forecourt and stranded on a backwater road along the way to visit her grandchildren. I got the location plugged straight into the TomTom and got there within an hour. I got to the stricken lady and drained the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. Whilst I was doing the drain she told me, "Now I'm becoming quite forgetful in my old age and forgot about the vehicle working with diesel seeing that I'd only purchased it a couple of days ago right after my other car, which I had for in excess of twenty years, inevitably broke down". I completed the drain and she presented me a Murray mint and said thanks. Such a pleasant Hampshire lady!

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.
