It was just after 7 pm on a Thursday and though we were assured a dry day, it hadn't stopped pouring! Mark and me were relaxing talking over the recent rugby, waiting around for the 6th call that day to come in. In due time we received a phone call from a lady on a business trip who had pulled into the Shell filling station in Brookhampton and put petrol in her diesel brother's Jaguar XK lease car in error. She was rather distressed by the sounds of it, crying "I simply can't believe I have wrecked the car! I'm so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I had did not remember I was running a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to fret, and that these things unfortunately do happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a safe space and, as it was just a few minutes off from our van, we could reach the lady without delay. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was lodging at. Although we got pretty wet, it was all worthwhile to see her drive home calm and much less stressed. Another job in Oxfordshire done well in my opinion!

The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant matter to take care of in a car - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in fuel tank can certainly trigger idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both cases fairly expediently.

Keep in mind though that whenever the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will be totally wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've successfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.

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.
