It was around 10 pm on a Thursday and although we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't given up on pouring! Paul and I were sitting there commenting on the recent football results, at the ready for the next telephone call that day to come in. In due time we received the call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had pulled into the Texaco filling garage in Rougham and filled petrol in her diesel mint green BMW Z4 rental car in error. The poor thing was somewhat distressed by the sounds of it, telling me "I still can't believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I am just so used to filling my petrol vehicle I completely forgot I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to take it easy and not to fret, and that these things can happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a protected position and, since it was only a short distance away from the office, we were able to find her fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out so she could return to the motel she was staying at. Despite the fact we got really drenched, it was all worth the time to watch her drive off calm and less anxious. Another fuel drain in Suffolk well done in my mind!

The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually an important condition to deal with in an automobile - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your fuel is likely to cause idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both cases quite expediently.

You should know however that if the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a vehicle parking spot we can reach the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.

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.
