It was close to six pm on a Thursday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and I were resting there discussing the recent sports, at the ready for the seventh telephone call for the day to arrive. Inevitably we received the call from a lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the BP petrol garage in Blidworth and put the wrong fuel in her diesel brother's Range Rover hire car. The poor lady was pretty agitated it seemed, crying "I simply can't believe I have ruined the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I totally forgot I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to fret, plus that such things unfortunately often happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a secure area and, since it was only a few minutes away from where we were, we could reach her without delay. The bad fuel was taken out so she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was staying in. Despite the fact that we got very drenched, it was all worth the time to watch her drive home satisfied and much less apprehensive. Another misfuel correction in Nottinghamshire done well 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 is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important matter to address in a car - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel is likely to lead to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not remedied correctly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both cases pretty simply.

Bear in mind however that if the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a car parking spot we are able to reach the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.

This was exactly what we call an unsociable time to be awake. It was close to 3:30 in the morning and nobody was stirring. It had become fairly quiet up to now, and Paul and I were relaxing looking through some old papers. It was an unusual calm moment in Nottinghamshire. Actually it was in fact that tranquil that the instant my mobile eventually rang it made me jump! The customer on the phone explained: "I have only just concluded my overnight shift and incredibly filled petrol in a diesel bright yellow BMW 325". We asked him to let us know where exactly he was located and we headed out, arriving in Blidworth 30 minutes later. The contaminated fuel was extracted from the car and he thanked us profusely for coming so fast. As we were heading back to the depot we saw two young women on the side of the road who appeared to have a puncture. So we got out to 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 VAT 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.
