The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a car or truck parking spot we are able to access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel tank can easily produce idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain than water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both circumstances pretty simply.

You should know that if the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and ineffective.

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.
