It was after five pm on a Monday and though we were promised a dry and fresh day, it hadn't ceased raining! Brian and I were resting there talking over the tennis rankings, waiting around for the 6th call of the day to arrive. Eventually we got a phone call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had pulled into the Esso petrol station in Kingston Upon Thames and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel creamy white Cadillac Seville rental. She was rather troubled it seemed, saying "I cannot believe that I have destroyed the car! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I had did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and that such things regrettably often happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a secure position and, since it was only a few miles off from the office, we could reach the woman swiftly. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she could once again go back to the hotel she was residing at. Even though we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worthwhile to see her drive away contented and a lot less worried. A fuel drain in Kingston upon Thames done well in my opinion!

The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly an important matter to address in a car - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol is going to bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with correctly, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both circumstances rather simply.

Be aware however that any time the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will be totally wet and useless.

Providing the boat is either on land, or moored close to a car or truck parking spot we can access the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.

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.
