It was just after 6 pm on a Friday and although we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't given up on pouring! Paul and I were relaxing commenting on the tennis rankings, waiting for the next fuel drain that day to come in. Finally we received a phone call from a girl on a business trip who had arrived at the Texaco filling garage in Bretford and put the wrong fuel in a diesel navy blue Mitsubishi 3000GT lease car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was somewhat affected by the sounds of it, saying "I can not believe I have messed up the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I totally forgot I was using a diesel!" We asked her to calm down and not to be concerned, and also that things like this do happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle to a safe position and, because it was no more than a few miles off from us, we were able to get to the woman swiftly. The incorrect fuel was drained so she could return to the hotel she was living in. Although we got very soaked, it was all worth it to watch her drive off relaxed and much less concerned.

The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Waste Fuel Removal

Have a fuel container at the rear of your garden with unwanted, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and industrial premises in Warwickshire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or even several containers in an outbuilding, as long as we are able to get to it, we can certainly drain it for you.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually a serious matter to take care of in a car - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel can easily lead to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both circumstances fairly expediently.

Bear in mind that so long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Bretford

Now I am not overly inclined to carrying out work on Sundays, and 2 weeks ago was no different. I'd only just departed the family after a superb roast made for me by the missus, and I was on the way to deal with a man who had put the wrong fuel in his well worn Kia Rio. He was situated in Bretford and so it wouldn't be a long time before I got to him. As I pulled up right behind the vehicle and got out he explained to me "Thank God! I had my attention on other things and didn't grasp that I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. I need to know if I created any problems by running it?" I revealed that there shouldn't be problems and that I'd personally get the fuel drained as soon as possible for him. As expected I got the fuel drained from the car and put in the correct fuel, and then yet another happy client had the ability to continue his journey without any fuss. The guy could not stop thanking me, and that is actually what can make carrying out work on Sundays in Warwickshire just that little bit better for me personally!

It truly was what we call an unsociable hour to be up. It was roughly dawn and noone was about. It was quite dead up to now, and Ray and I were loafing about reading some old articles. That was an unusual quiet moment in Warwickshire. It was in fact so quiet that the instant the phone finally rang it made me start! The person explained: "I have just completed my night shift and foolishly filled petrol in my yellow Audi V8 by mistake". I got him to tell us just where the car was and we headed out, reaching him in Bretford only an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned from the motor. He thanked us profusely for arriving so fast. While we were coming back home we noticed two young ladies at the side of the street who appeared to have a flat tyre. So we stopped to change it, much to their delight.

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.
