It was before eight pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh night, it hadn't given up on raining! James and me were relaxing there talking about the sports rankings, waiting for the sixth fuel drain of the day to come in. Finally we had the phone call from a girl on a company excursion who had gone to the BP filling station in Low Barlings and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel dirty red Renault lease car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was fairly distressed apparently, saying "I still cannot believe I've ruined the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I had forgot that I was using a diesel!" I just instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, and also that these things regrettably can happen.

The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a serious condition to address in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel will likely bring about idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of than water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both situations pretty swiftly.

Be aware that if ever the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have 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 secured close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.

I had a fantastic day hiking during my afternoon off and was feeling cheerful the following day as I set out to aid a young couple holidaying in Low Barlings. They had pulled over after filling diesel in their grass green Renault Master, and they were approximately half an hour away. I arrived at their car and laughed as I heard to the lady berating her hubby for turning out to be so stupid. "Just how could you possibly manage to fill up by using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I wanted to tell her that this situation comes to pass frequently in Lincolnshire and that it's nothing to be concerned about, however he still got his ear bent. I felt genuine sympathy for the lad. In any case, I extracted the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the right fuel. While they drove down the road I waved farewell and pondered on what my wife would ask me if ever I made the same error... I'd never ever hear the end of it!

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.
