The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to a vehicle parking spot we are able to access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have successfully done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious condition to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in fuel can result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both circumstances quite expediently.

Bear in mind that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will probably be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

We did a wrong fuel removal exercise near a beautiful house in Lower Pennington a few weeks ago. "I had put unleaded in my diesel car and was able to more or less arrive at home when my car broke down." Our fuel drainer went out, despite the fact that it was rather late at night, and completed a thorough fuel drain and purge on the mate's Chrysler Grand Voyager to everyone's satisfaction.

This was certainly what we call an unsociable time to be on the road. It was close to 2am and almost noone was around. It was pretty dead so far, and John and I were loafing about perusing some old newspapers. That was an unusual quiet hour in Hampshire. Actually it was in fact that quiet that when the telephone ultimately rang I leaped! The motorist explained: "I have only just ended my night shift and foolishly filled the wrong fuel in my dark red Ford Club Wagon". I got him to tell us where he was situated and we hit the road, arriving in Lower Pennington no more than half an hour later. The incorrect fuel was cleared from the engine. He said thanks for getting there so rapidly. While we were heading back to the depot we found two young women on the side of the highway who seemed to have a puncture. Obviously we got out to 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.
