The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious situation to take care of in a car - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in fuel may trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out properly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both situations rather easily.

Bear in mind that in the event that the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will be totally water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored near to an automobile parking bay we should be able to gain access to the storage and drain out the fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.

I'd had a fantastic afternoon cycling on my holiday and felt cheerful with myself the following morning as I headed out to aid a young family who were away in Kenny. They'd stopped after adding diesel in their pristine Renault Megane, and they were approximately an hour away. I emerged at their position and laughed to myself while I heard to the wife chastising her husband for actually being so silly. "Precisely how could you possibly find a way to fill the vehicle up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I tried to tell her that this takes place continuously in Somerset and that it's nothing to get worried about, however he all the same got his ear bent by his missus. Poor chap. At any rate, I removed the polluted fuel, flushed the engine and filled them up with the proper fuel. As they drove off I mouthed farewell and wondered what my wife would say to me if ever I made the very same error... I would personally never ever hear the end of it!

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 VA 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.
