The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant issue to take care of in an automobile - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel tank will often result in idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both circumstances fairly quickly.

Take note however that whenever the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one is going to be totally water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a car parking bay we are able to gain access to the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have successfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.

A young lady from South Elkington with a full car of youngsters in her diesel metallic silver Mercedes SLK55 AMG had filled her vehicle with £40 of petrol at the Co Op filling station. She contacted us weeping and genuinely worried as she had never wrong fueled before and did not know what might happen to her car in doing so. We told her that all would be fine and that she would be back on the road very quickly.

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.
