We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question a significant condition to address in a vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your fuel is going to contribute to idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied properly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain than water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both circumstances very easily.

Keep in mind that any time the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

I had a wonderful day golfing during my day off and was feeling satisfied the following morning as I was en route to aid a young couple holidaying in Adeney. They'd pulled over after putting diesel into their metallic grey Dodge Colt, and were approximately an hour away. I got there at their location and laughed as I heard to the wife telling off her spouse for actually being so foolish. "Just how could you even find a way to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I attempted to tell her that this kind of thing occurs regularly in Shropshire and that it's nothing to worry about, nevertheless he in spite of everything got an earful by his missus. Unfortunate lad. In any case, I drained out the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some correct fuel. Watching while they drove away I mouthed so long and pondered on what my wife would ask me if I did the exact same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!

He was stationed in Adeney therefore it wasn't a long time before I reached him. As I pulled up at the vehicle and started work he told me "Thank God!

It truly was what is called an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was about sunrise and hardly anyone was stirring. It had been fairly quiet up to now, and me and Ray were loafing about looking at some old magazines. That was a rare calm time in Shropshire. Actually it was indeed so quiet that the instant the telephone eventually rang I jumped with surprise! The motorist stated: "I've only just completed my overnight shift and stupidly filled the wrong fuel in my daughter's Honda Ridgeline". We asked him to tell us exactly where the vehicle was and we hit the road, getting to him in Adeney no more than half an hour later. The incorrect fuel was extracted from the car and he said many thanks for coming so rapidly. While we were returning home we noticed two girls on the edge of the street who seemed to have a flat tyre. As a result we got out to change it, to their elation.

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

    • 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.
