It was after ten pm on a Saturday and even though we were promised a dry night, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Brian and I were relaxing there going over the weekend's footy results, prepared for the 6th telephone call that day to arrive. Eventually we received a phone call from a young lady on a business trip who had gone to the Tesco filling station in Bromley Park and put petrol in her diesel beautiful Volvo V40 lease car. She was pretty distressed it seemed, saying "I still cannot believe that I've ruined the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I told her to calm down and not to be concerned, plus that these things sadly can happen. She managed to relocate the car to a safe position and, because it was only a few minutes away from us, we could arrive at the lady fairly quickly. The bad fuel was taken out and she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was staying at. Although we got really soaked, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away satisfied and a lot less stressed. Yet another misfuel correction in Bromley well done in my books!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally a significant matter to address in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel may produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both cases very swiftly.

Be aware however that in the event that the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated close to a car parking bay we will be able to reach the storage and drain out the fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.

Just had a good night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 am on a rainy Saturday and I was off to assist an old lady after she put petrol in her diesel baby blue Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class in Bromley Park. She told us that she had driven away from the filling station and stranded along a backwater lane on route to pay a visit to her godchildren. I got her location punched into the TomTom and arrived in less than an hour. I got to the stricken lady and extracted the contaminated fuel in the car car. As I was doing the work she said, "I'm becoming somewhat absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle using diesel since I'd just got it a week back after my other one, which I had had for about twenty five years, eventually stopped working". I got the drain completed and she gave me a toffee and thanked me for my efforts. What a delightful Bromley woman!

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.
