It was close to 8 pm on a Monday and while we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't ceased raining! Dan and I were seated discussing the footy rankings, waiting around for the next fuel drain for the day to come in. Before long we had a call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had pulled into the Texaco filling garage in Woodthorpe and put petrol in her diesel friend's Dodge Colt rental car. The unfortunate thing was pretty irritated apparently, stating "I simply cannot believe that I've ruined the car! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I totally forgot I was driving a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to worry, plus that these things happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a safe area and, seeing as it was only a few minutes off from the office, we were able to reach the woman rather quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she could once again go back to the motel she was lodging in. Despite the fact we got pretty drenched, it was all rewarding to watch her drive away contented and a lot less anxious. One more fuel drain in Leicestershire done well in my mind!

The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to an automobile parking bay we can access the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a significant condition to handle in a car - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel will often trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain as compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both cases very swiftly.

Be aware though that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and unusable.

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.
