The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question an important condition to address in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel can potentially lead to idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both circumstances pretty expediently.

Take note however that so long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will probably be totally wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to an automobile parking bay we will be able to access the storage and drain out the fuel. We've successfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.

A lady had come to a stop on a road, Foxcombe Hill having just misfueled. She was sobbing and quite distressed as she had put £45 petrol in her diesel car.

By the time we got to her she was not troubled any more and was rather interested in observing our fuel drainer complete the fuel drain on her rust red Hyundai Entourage. Afterwards she said: "My vehicle is akin to my baby, I only recently bought it and thus it genuinely worried me that I had put such an abundance of wrong fuel in it. I'm very gratified that it was so easily fixable."

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.
