The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious matter to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel tank may result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both situations pretty quickly.

Bear in mind however that whenever the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will probably be totally wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to parking spot we are able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.


Wrong Fuel in Car in BH25 Postcode - Wootton Misfueling

What a good night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a bright Tuesday and I was en route to assist an older lady who put petrol in her diesel dark red Volkswagen Jetta in Wootton. She informed us that she had left the petrol station forecourt and was pulled up along a rural lane on the way to visit her family. I popped her location straight into the TomTom and arrived inside 60 minutes. I got to the location and extracted the wrong fuel from the vehicle. As I was doing it she said, "I am becoming relatively forgetful in my old age and forgot about the car needing diesel as I'd just bought it a short while ago right after my old car, which I'd had for over thirty years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I got the job done and she gave me a Murray mint and said thank you. What a lovely Hampshire woman!

I enjoyed a wonderful afternoon golfing during the weekend and felt cheerful with myself the following working day as I was on the way to help a new couple on holiday in Wootton. They had conked out after putting petrol in their metallic red Mazda B2000, and the car was approximately an hour away. I showed up at their location and smirked to myself while I listened to the wife telling her spouse off for actually being so daft. "Exactly how could you even be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I tried to clarify that this goes on everyday in Hampshire and that it is nothing at all to get worried about, and yet he yet still had an earful. I felt sorry for the chap. Anyway, I removed all the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. While watching them drive away I shouted good-bye and thought about what her indoors would ask me in the event that I did the exact same thing... I'd personally never ever hear the end of it!

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.
