It was just after five pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Ryan and me were relaxing talking over the weekend's football results, waiting for the next call of the day to come in. Finally we received a call from a lovely women on a company trip who had pulled into the Tesco petrol garage in Dunstal and put the wrong fuel in her diesel compact Suzuki Kizashi hire car by mistake. She was pretty affected it seemed, saying "I just can't believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I had didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" We told her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that things like this unfortunately do happen.

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to access the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly a serious matter to take care of in a vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel may trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both situations quite quickly.

Remember however that as long as the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one is going to be totally wet and ineffective.

A motorist had come to a stop on a street, Dunstal having just put petrol in her diesel car. She was weeping and quite troubled as she had put £55 petrol in her diesel car. When she contacted us we attempted to sooth her as well as we could, telling her that it would be alright. By the time we reached her she was not distressed any more and was rather fascinated in watching our engineer perform the fuel drain on her modern MINI Cooper Clubman.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Dunstal

A young adult who had only recently passed his test had misfueled his mustard yellow Dodge Charger by having unleaded in the diesel vehicle at the petrol station near Dunstal. He said, "This is just the third occasion I have fueled my car from the time when I paid for it and I have no clue of what to do." He was also scared as his step father had just paid for the car. He came across us on the internet and so called it right away, frightened about what he needed to do. Our man on the telephones explained to him that we could be with him in 45 minutes and to not start his vehicle while waiting. We carried out the drain on his car and he mentioned how impressed he was that it was taken care of so speedily and with not much problem whatsoever.

A young lady employed in Dunstal phoned us as soon as she tried to get her wrong fueled vehicle to the office. She had filled petrol in her diesel black Cadillac Escalade EXT and, like many people prior to her, believed that she would be able to simply fill up her tank with diesel and it'd be no problem. The engine was coughing and then it stopped when she arrived at the the front of her work. We promptly went to work on the fuel drain after she called and had it fixed in one hour while she was working. She came out soon after and thanked us saying, "I'm really happy you repaired my vehicle."

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.
