The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a car or truck parking bay we are able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally an important issue to deal with in an automobile - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel can produce idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with fully, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both cases very simply.

Keep in mind that any time the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and unusable.


Wrong Fuel in Car in NG8 Postcode - Wollaton Misfueling

A motorist had stopped on a road, Wollaton having just put the wrong fuel in her car. She was crying and very troubled as she had put £55 of petrol in her diesel car. As she called us we attempted to sooth her as well as we could, telling her that it would be no problem. When we got to her she was not upset any more and was really interested in observing our fuel drainer complete the fuel drain on her daughter's Audi Q7. Later on she said: "My vehicle is akin to my baby, I only recently got it and so it truly horrified me that I had put such a large amount of wrong fuel in it. I'm so gratified that it was very easily repairable."

We deal with your vehicle through our complete licencing and insurance protection. No matter whether you are driving an age-old banger or a modern high end vehicle we can certainly help.

A gentleman called us from his place on a street in Wollaton. He explained, "My car (a old Nissan Armada) is not starting up and is creating awful noises when I turn the ignition." He admitted that he put unleaded in his diesel vehicle but then believed he would remedy the problem by putting more Diesel on top. We were on scene quickly, performed the drain and filled him up once more with clean Diesel. He told us after that he would be sure to inform people not to fill up in addition to the incorrect fuel but to have it drained promptly.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Wollaton

We did a wrong fuel removal exercise on the drive of a beautiful residential home in Wollaton recently. "I put unleaded in my diesel car and was able to nearly reach home when my car quit." Our technician went out, even though it was rather late at night, and completed a full fuel drain and purge on the white Suzuki Sidekick to everyone's satisfaction.

A young lady living in Wollaton contacted us as soon as she managed to get her wrong fueled vehicle to her office. She had filled petrol in her diesel son's BMW 525 and, like plenty before her, believed that she could simply top up the tank with diesel and it'd be no problem. The car was chugging and then it died when she reached the the front of her work. We soon went to work on the fuel drain following her call and had it repaired inside an hour or so whilst she was in the office. She came out when we finished and thanked us saying, "I'm very glad you repaired my vehicle."

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.
