It was just before 9 pm on a Saturday and while we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Mark and me were seated there discussing the recent rugby, prepared for the 6th job that day to arrive. Inevitably we got the phone call from a lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol station in Oakenshaw and filled petrol in her diesel metallic grey Volkswagen Touareg hire car. The unfortunate lady was very troubled by the sounds of it, crying "I can not believe that I've wrecked the car! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol car I had did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I instructed her to calm down and not to worry, also that things like this sadly happen. She was able to move the car to a protected space and, as it was just a short distance off from us, we could get to her rather quickly.

The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant situation to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel will often cause idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both circumstances very expediently.

Be aware however that as long as the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to parking bay we can reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.

This was the night shift. It was about dawn and noone was about. It was quite uneventful thus far, and me and John were relaxing looking at some old articles. That was an unusual quiet time in Lancashire. Actually it was indeed that quiet that the instant the telephone inevitably rang I jumped! The motorist stated: "I have only just completed my night shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in a boss' Peugeot 505 by mistake". We got him to let us know where exactly he was and we left, reaching him in Oakenshaw under an hour later. The wrong fuel was cleaned from the car. He thanked us profusely for arriving so fast. As we were going back to the office we spotted two young ladies on the edge of the highway who looked like they suffered a flat tyre. Obviously we stopped and helped them 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 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.
