The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is definitely an important situation to handle in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel can potentially trigger idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both cases quite easily.

Remember however that as long as the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near to parking bay we will be able to access the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.


Wrong Fuel in Car in LN8 Postcode - Thoresway Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a great night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 am on a gloomy Tuesday and I was off to assist an older lady who had put petrol in her diesel sunflower yellow Saab 9-3 in Thoresway. She told us that she had left the filling station forecourt and stranded on a backwater lane along the way to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I got her location plugged into the Satnav and was on-scene inside an hour. I arrived at the destination and removed the contaminated fuel out of the car. As I was doing it she said to me, "Now I'm becoming rather forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle taking diesel because I'd just acquired it a few days back when my other one, which I'd owned for in excess of 30 years, eventually gave up the ghost". I completed the job and she gifted me a toffee and thanked me for my efforts. What a lovely Lincolnshire lady!

A young lady from Thoresway with a full car of children in her diesel dark green BMW 530 had put £40 of petrol at the BP filling station. She called us weeping and really upset as she had never wrong fueled before and did not know what might happen to her car in doing so. We reassured her that the vehicle would be alright and that she would be on the road soon. When we arrived she was visible upset but while our engineer began work on the fuel drain she calmed down as she discovered that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't wrecked. She quickly cheered up and was on her way saying, "I simply can't believe my misfortune putting the wrong fuel in my car! Particularly with the kids in the back."

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.
