It was after six pm on a Tuesday and even though we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't given up on pouring! Dan and me were resting there commenting on the footy results, waiting for the seventh telephone call to arrive. In due time we received a phone call from a lady on a business excursion who had gone to the BP filling garage in Baxterley and put the wrong fuel in a diesel dark green Renault Espace hire car by mistake. She was very troubled it seemed, telling me "I cannot believe that I've wrecked the car! I'm just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" We advised her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that these things regrettably happen. She had managed to maneuver the car into a secure area and, seeing as it was only a few miles away from our van, we could get to the lady fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Even though we got really soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive off relaxed and much less stressed. Another misfuel correction in Warwickshire well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question an important situation to handle in a car - specifically in modern day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol can certainly bring about idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both circumstances pretty simply.

Take note however that so long as the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one is going to be completely wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a vehicle parking bay we are able to access the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.

Just had a fantastic night of sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a sunny Bank Holiday Monday and I was off to assist an old woman after she put petrol in her diesel buff Vauxhall Monaro in Baxterley. I had been informed she had left the filling station forecourt and stranded in a rural road on route to visit her family. I popped the location in the Satnav and got there inside an hour or so. I reached the car and removed the wrong fuel from the car. Whilst I was doing it she said to me, "I'm becoming rather forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the car taking diesel because I'd only just bought it a couple of days ago after my old one, which I had for in excess of 30 years, eventually gave up the ghost". I finished the drain and she presented me a Murray mint and thanked me for my efforts. What a pleasant Warwickshire woman!

We have fuel drain specialists on call in the local area willing and waiting to arrive and drain your car of the wrong fuel or polluted fuel. We work 24/7 every day of the year. All of our specialists are totally trained and professional in coping with all kinds of cars.

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.
