It was just after 10 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry evening, it hadn't ceased raining! Dan and I were relaxing talking over the weekend's rugby rankings, at the ready for the 8th job of the day to arrive. Inevitably we had the call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had pulled into the Shell filling station in East Winterslow and filled petrol in a diesel light green Mazda MX-6 hire car in error. She was somewhat irritated by the sounds of it, saying "I can not believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I am so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, plus that things like this sadly do happen. She managed to get the car to a secure space and, since it was only a few minutes from us, we could reach her quickly. The bad fuel was extracted so she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth the time to see her drive off relaxed and a lot less stressed. One more fuel drain in Wiltshire well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually a significant situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel will result in idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out when compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both circumstances very simply.

Keep in mind that whenever the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close to a car parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at docks 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.
