It was about 5 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! James and I were seated going over the recent rugby rankings, prepared for the 8th fuel drain to come in. Eventually we got the phone call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had pulled into the BP petrol garage in Stanfield and filled petrol in her diesel dark green Suzuki Vitara lease car in error. The poor lady was quite troubled by the sounds of it, stating "I can not believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I am just so used to filling up my petrol car I completely forgot I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to calm down and not to worry, and that these things can happen. She managed to relocate the car to a safe position and, because it was no more than a short distance off from our van, we could get to the woman quickly. The wrong fuel was drained and she was able to return to the hotel she was residing at. Even though we got fairly drenched, it was all rewarding seeing her drive home satisfied and a lot less anxious. Another fuel drain in Norfolk done well in my books!

The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be an important situation to deal with in an automobile - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol will likely cause idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove than water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both situations very simply.

Be aware though that whenever the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.

Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel reservoir placed in the rear of the garden full of old, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of private and business premises in Norfolk for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a number of containers in an outbuilding, providing we are able to reach it, we could certainly empty it.


Wrong Fuel in Car in NR20 Postcode - Stanfield Misfueling

Just had a good night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 am on a sunny Monday and I was on the way to help an elder lovely lady who put petrol in her diesel father's Cadillac XLR-V in Stanfield. I'd been informed she had driven away from the petrol station and was pulled up in a country road en route to pay a visit to her godchildren. I got her location plugged in the TomTom and got there within 60 minutes. I got to the stricken lady and removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle. While I was working she said, "I'm getting quite forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the car needing diesel seeing that I had just purchased it a couple of days back because my previous one, which I owned for in excess of twenty five years, finally gave up the ghost". I finished the job and she offered me a Murray mint and thanked me for my efforts. What a delightful Norfolk lady!

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.
