It was just before eight pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry day, it hadn't given up on raining! Ryan and I were resting talking about the weekend's footy rankings, at the ready for the 6th fuel drain for the day to arrive. Inevitably we received a call from a young lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the Esso petrol garage in Forest Gate and filled petrol in a diesel green Ford Taurus rental. She was very affected by the sounds of it, stating "I still cannot believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I am just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I just asked her to relax and not to be concerned, also that such things sadly happen. She was able to get the car into a safe area and, as it was only a few minutes away from the office, we were able to reach her swiftly. The incorrect fuel was removed and she could get back to the Travelodge she was residing at. Despite the fact we got pretty drenched, it was all worthwhile to see her drive home satisfied and much less anxious. Another misfuel correction in Hampshire well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a car parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've carried out numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a serious situation to handle in an automobile - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the fuel tank can easily contribute to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed fully, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both cases very quickly.

Remember though that in the event that the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will likely be completely wet and useless.

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.
