The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely an important matter to take care of in an automobile - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in fuel can potentially cause idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both circumstances fairly swiftly.

Keep in mind though that in the event that the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will be completely wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked near to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to access the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've successfully done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.

This was exactly an unsociable time to be on the road. It was roughly sunrise and almost noone was around. It was pretty uneventful up to now, and me and Brian were loafing looking through a few old articles. This was an unusual quiet moment in North Yorkshire. It was so calm that the moment my mobile inevitably rang it made me start! The voice on the opposite end told me: "I finished my evening shift and incredibly filled petrol in the diesel deep grey Bugatti Veyron". We got him to inform us where exactly he was located and we hit the road, arriving in Cundall only an hour later. The incorrect fuel was taken out from the vehicle. He said many thanks for getting there so promptly. While we were going back to base we found two young women at the edge of the street who seemed to have a puncture. So we got out and helped them change it, 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.
