A gentleman broken down on a road in Kings Mills required a fuel drain roughly a few weeks ago. His sombre grey Mercedes Sprinter was stuck on the side of the road after he had filled up with the wrong fuel. He was calm when he called us but somewhat concerned to move his car off the road since he was causing some traffic. We got to him inside a quarter-hour seeing that our drainer was in in close proximity of Kings Mills and had concluded his previous job. He said, "I simply can't believe I put unleaded in my diesel car and got stuck ! My vehicle was coughing I just were forced to stop and then it just conked."

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a significant situation to handle in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.
Having water or AdBlue in the fuel tank can potentially trigger idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both cases pretty expediently.
You should know however that as long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and ineffective.

We have been called out to quite a few private and business premises in Leicestershire for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages.

Wrong Fuel in Car in DE74 Postcode - Kings Mills Misfueling
A young lady had broken down on a road, Kings Mills having just misfueled. She was in tears and very agitated as she had put £40 petrol in her diesel car. When she called us we tried to relax her as well as we could, encouraging her that all would be ok. By the time we got to her she was not distressed any more and was pretty intrigued in watching our fuel drainer complete the fuel drain on her modified Volkswagen Eos. Later she said: "My vehicle is akin to my baby, I only recently got it so it genuinely horrified me that I had put such a large amount of wrong fuel in it. I'm terribly pleased that it was so easily repairable."

We got a phone call from a customer whose mom's Audi S5 had ground to a halt on a road after a misfuel. "I mixed up the pumps and put the wrong fuel in my car . You guys arrived and sorted out the situation right after my vehicle gave up." We drained the unleaded from the diesel tank and flushed the system meticulously afterwards and the customer could continue with his deliveries.

This really was what is called an unsociable hour to be up. It was roughly 3am and almost noone was around. It had become fairly dead up to now, and me and Mark were sitting around reading some old papers. It was a rare peaceful time in Leicestershire. Actually it was that quiet that the instant the phone rang it made me start! The person on the other end told me: "I have only just completed my night shift and foolishly poured the wrong fuel in a diesel buff VW GTI by mistake". We told him to let us know where he was located and we headed out, ending up in Kings Mills no more than 30 minutes later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed from the motor. He said thanks for getting there so quickly. As we were going back home we spotted two young women at the edge of the road who appeared to have a flat. As a result we got out to help them change it, much to their delight.

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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
