The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant issue to take care of in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel tank can potentially contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not addressed fully, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both situations very swiftly.

Keep in mind however that any time the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a motor vehicle parking spot we can gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.

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.
