It was about 9 pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry afternoon, it hadn't ceased pouring! Brian and I were relaxing talking about the football rankings, ready for the next job for the day to arrive. Inevitably we received the call from a lady on a company excursion who had pulled into the Tesco filling station in Shepperton Green and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel mate's Austin Mini Cooper rental car. The poor lady was pretty agitated it seemed, saying "I still cannot believe that I've wrecked the car! I'm just so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to fret, also that these things do happen. She managed to relocate the car to a safe area and, as it was no more than a few miles off from where we were, we were able to find the woman quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out and she could get back to the motel she was staying at. Even though we got extremely soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive away relaxed and much less anxious. One more fuel drain in Surrey done well in my mind!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is without question a serious situation to deal with in a car - specifically in modern day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your fuel will likely lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both situations fairly expediently.

Remember that if the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will likely be thoroughly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a vehicle parking bay we can gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.

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.
