A guy stopped on a street in Walcot required a fuel drain close to a month ago. His sombre grey Volvo960 was stuck on the road after he had misfueled. He was calm when he phoned us but a bit concerned to get his car out of the road because he was triggering some traffic. We arrived inside fifteen minutes because our drainer was in nearby Walcot and had just finished his previous job. He said, "I can't believe I put petrol in my diesel car and broke down here! My car was so spluttery I simply needed to pull over and after that it just died."

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually an important condition to deal with in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines.
Having water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol can certainly bring about idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not addressed properly, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both situations quite quickly.
Be aware though that if the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will be completely wet and unusable.
Marine Fuel Drains
If you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.
Wrong Fuel in Car in BA2 Postcode - Walcot Misfueling
Just had a quality night's sleep! 7:30 am on a gloomy Sunday and we were en route to assist an old sweetheart after she put the wrong fuel in her diesel well worn Renault Laguna in Walcot. She informed us that she drove away from the petrol station and pulled up in a backwater lane on the way to visit her family. I got the location punched into the TomTom and was on-scene within 60 minutes. I turned up at the car and removed the wrong fuel from the car. Whilst I was doing the drain she said to me, "I have been getting rather forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the car needing diesel as I had only just got it a few days back after my former car, which I owned for about thirty years, finally broke down". I completed the job and she gifted me a peppermint and said thanks a lot. Such a delightful Somerset lady!

A man had stopped off a street in Walcot. His apricot Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class engine had ceased operating and he had no idea what was faulty until he noticed he put unleaded in his diesel car. He called us to get a fuel drain and that's when he informed us: "I can not believe that I didn't realise that I put the wrong fuel in my vehicle." He stated that he had got virtually no sleep the night before and that must have been the key reason why.

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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
