The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly an important matter to handle in a vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel tank is likely to trigger idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove than water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both cases pretty simply.

Remember though that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will probably be completely wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.

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.
