It was about 6 pm on a Tuesday and although we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ryan and me were resting commenting on the weekend's rugby results, waiting for the sixth call for the day to come in. Eventually we had a phone call from a young lady on a company expedition who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling garage in Wainfleet Bank and put petrol in her diesel daughter's VW Passat rental in error. The unfortunate thing was rather irritated it seemed, saying "I just can't believe I've ruined the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle I totally forgot that I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to calm down and not to worry, and also that things like this sadly happen. She was able to move the vehicle into a safe spot and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes from where we were, we could arrive at the lady without delay. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could get back to the hotel she was staying at. Although we got really wet, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive home relaxed and less anxious. One more fuel drain in Lincolnshire done well in my opinion!

The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely an important condition to address in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel can easily cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both cases pretty easily.

Keep in mind that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one will probably be totally wet and ineffective.

As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a car or truck parking bay we can access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.

This was exactly what is called an unsociable hour to be up. It was about 3am and hardly anyone was stirring. It was quite uneventful until now, and me and Paul were relaxing reading a few old newspapers. It was an unusual calm hour in Lincolnshire. Actually it was indeed so tranquil that the moment the telephone eventually rang I jumped with surprise! The customer said: "I've just concluded my evening shift and incredibly put petrol in the diesel beloved Porsche Cayenne in error". I instructed him to tell us where the vehicle was located and we left, reaching him in Wainfleet Bank half an hour later. The incorrect fuel was taken out from the car. He thanked us profusely for arriving so quickly. While we were returning home we noticed two young ladies at the edge of the road who looked like they suffered a flat. So we pulled over 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:

  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.
