It was before ten pm on a Saturday and while we were guaranteed a rainless day, it hadn't stopped pouring! James and I were resting there talking over the tennis results, ready for the next telephone call of the day to arrive. Eventually we got the phone call from a young lady on a business excursion who had gone to the Sainsburys filling station in Old Hatfield and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel teal BMW M Roadster hire car by mistake. She was rather troubled it seemed, crying "I cannot believe I've wrecked the car! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I totally forgot I was driving a diesel!" We told her to relax and not to be concerned, and that things like this sadly can happen. She managed to move the car into a secure area and, because it was just a few minutes from the office, we were able to reach her without delay. The wrong fuel was removed so she could go home to the motel she was staying at. Despite the fact we got very wet, it was all worth the time to see her drive away satisfied and much less worried. Yet another misfuel correction in Hertfordshire well done in my mind!

The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally a serious condition to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel can potentially trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both cases quite swiftly.

Bear in mind that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will probably be thoroughly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.

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.
