The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally an important condition to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel can lead to idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both situations very swiftly.

Remember that in the event that the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will be totally water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at docks 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.
