It was around 5 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless afternoon, it hadn't given up on raining! James and me were relaxing there talking over the weekend's footy, waiting for the 8th call to come in. Inevitably we got the call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol station in Serrington and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel bright white Jeep Compass lease car. She was somewhat troubled by the sounds of it, crying "I just can't believe that I've ruined the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol car I completely didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that things like this sadly can happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a safe spot and, seeing as it was only a few miles from where we were, we could get to her without delay. The wrong fuel was taken out and she could return to the Travelodge she was staying in. Despite the fact we got very wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away calm and less worried. A misfuel correction in Wiltshire well done in my mind!

The 3 things you NEED to know about petrol in diesel!


Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a car or truck parking spot we are able to access the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important issue to deal with in an automobile - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel can bring about idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both circumstances quite simply.

You should know however that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one is going to be totally water-logged and unusable.

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.
