The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a car parking spot we are able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually an important matter to handle in a vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel tank may well lead to idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied correctly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both circumstances quite swiftly.

Be aware though that if ever the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will likely be totally water-logged and unusable.


Wrong Fuel in Car in OX9 Postcode - Tetsworth Misfueling

What a good night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 am on a rainy Wednesday and I was on my way to assist an older lady after she put petrol in her diesel khaki green Volvo V40 in Tetsworth. I'd been informed she had left the filling station forecourt and stranded in a rural road on route to see her grandchildren. I punched the location in the TomTom and was on-scene in less than an hour. I turned up at the destination and extracted the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. Whilst I was doing the drain she explained, "I have been becoming somewhat forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the car using diesel since I'd just bought it a week back because my previous one, which I had used for over 30 years, eventually died on me". I finished the drain and she offered me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. Such a pleasant Oxfordshire lady!

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.
