It was just after 7 pm on a Wednesday and though we were assured a dry day, it hadn't ceased raining! Brian and I were relaxing discussing the recent sports results, at the ready for the 8th fuel drain to arrive. Inevitably we received the call from a woman on a company trip who had pulled into the Tesco petrol garage in Overs and put petrol in a diesel matte black Audi Quattro hire car. She was very troubled it seemed, saying "I still cannot believe that I have wrecked the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I had forgot I was operating a diesel!" I told her to calm down and not to fret, and that such things regrettably do happen. She was able to get the car into a secure spot and, as it was just a short distance from our van, we could arrive at the woman without delay. The bad fuel was removed so she was able to go home to the motel she was staying at.

The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to an automobile parking spot we should be able to reach the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be a significant situation to deal with in an automobile - especially in advanced common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in fuel tank will often produce idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both situations rather simply.

Take note however that so long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will likely be totally wet and ineffective.

Now I'm not actually too inclined to running Sundays, and a week ago was the same. I'd only just come away from the wife and kids following a superb lunch cooked for me by the missus, and I was on the way to help a man after he had put the incorrect petrol in his canary yellow Mitsubishi Precis. He was located in Overs therefore it wasn't a long time before I reached him. Just as I arrived behind the vehicle and started work he told me "Praise the Almighty! I had my thoughts on other considerations and didn't ascertain I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I brought about any problems as a result of running it?" I explained that there should not be any damage and also I would personally remove the fuel as quickly as possible. Naturally I removed the contaminated fuel from the vehicle and put in some appropriate fuel, and thus yet another content client could carry on with their trip without any fuss. The guy could not stop saying thanks to me, and this helps make working on Sundays in Shropshire just a small bit less painful for me!

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.
