A man broken down on a street in Normoss required a fuel drain about a few weeks back. His husband's Honda Civic Si was broken down on the side of the road after he had misfueled. He was calm when he phoned us but a little concerned to get his car away from the road because he was causing some congestion. We got to him inside fifteen minutes since our drainer was in neighbouring Normoss and had done a fuel drain. He said, "I can't believe I put unleaded in my diesel car and got stuck ! My vehicle was coughing I had to stop and subsequently it died."

The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is certainly a significant issue to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel tank will lead to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both cases rather easily.

Bear in mind however that so long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and unusable.

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel container sitting at the back of your garden containing unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We could help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous privately owned and commercial properties in Lancashire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.

Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps several containers in a garage, provided that we are able to access it, we can drain it for you.

Last Friday a motorist telephoned us because his cobalt blue Audi A3 died on a street in Normoss.

It was actually in the early hours of the day and our fuel drainer, who stays locally, reached him in about 20 minutes. We were able to drain the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel once again into the car. "Thank you for your timely response, and in particular at 6 a.m., I appreciate it."

Wrong Fuel in Car Lancashire - Petrol in Diesel Car Normoss

A young person who had just got his licence had misfueled his aunt's BMW Z8 by having petrol in the diesel vehicle at the filling station in Normoss. He said, "This is just the second time I have put fuel in my car from the time when I got it and I do not know how to proceed." He was also afraid since his father had just purchased him the car. He came across us on the internet and so called us right away, frightened about what he needed to do. Our person on the call explained to him that we could be there inside 45 minutes and to not move his car while waiting. We finished the drain on his vehicle and he stated how astonished he was that it was addressed so swiftly and no complication at all.

This was exactly what is called an unsociable time to be awake. It was about dawn and nobody was around. It had been fairly quiet until now, and me and Ryan were sitting browsing a number of old newspapers. That was a rare restful time in Lancashire. Actually it was so relaxing that the moment the phone rang it made me jump! The motorist on the opposite end stated: "I have just ended my evening shift and foolishly filled the wrong fuel in the diesel light green Volkswagen Golf III in error". I told him to inform us just where he was located and we left, getting to him in Normoss no more than an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was taken out from the engine. He said thanks for coming out so quickly. While we were going back home we saw two young ladies on the side of the street who seemed to have a flat. As a result we got out to help them change it, 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 VA 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.
