It was after 10 pm on a Monday and though we were assured a dry night, it hadn't given up on raining! Mark and me were sitting commenting on the tennis results, waiting for the seventh fuel drain that day to arrive. Finally we had the call from a woman on a business expedition who had pulled into the Tesco filling garage in Upper Hill and filled petrol in a diesel well worn BMW 325 hire car. She was pretty distressed apparently, saying "I can not believe I have messed up the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I had didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I just instructed her to settle back and not to worry, plus that things like this regrettably can happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle into a secure position and, because it was no more than a few minutes off from our van, we were able to find the customer without delay. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she could get back to the Travelodge she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got extremely soaked, it was all worth the effort to see her drive home contented and less stressed. Another misfuel correction in Herefordshire done well in my opinion!

The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant issue to address in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel will contribute to idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both cases quite swiftly.

Bear in mind though that as long as the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will likely be totally wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to access the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Upper Hill

Now I am not actually excessively interested in carrying out work weekends, and 2 weeks ago was the same. I'd just left home filled with a superb Sunday roast prepared for us by the wife, and I was en route to sort out a guy after he put the incorrect fuel in his precious VW Touareg 2. He was stationed in Upper Hill hence it wasn't a long time before I arrived with him. As I arrived behind the car and got out he told me "Praise the Lord! I foolishly had my thoughts on other considerations and failed to realise I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. I need to know if I brought about problems as a result of starting it?" I explained that truth be told there should not be any kind of problems and that I would remove the contaminated fuel as soon as possible. Naturally I removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle and put in some suitable fuel, and then one more contented motorist was able to carry on with their journey without the fuss. The gentleman couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and this is what makes working on Sundays in Herefordshire a little better in my opinion!

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.
