It was just before eight pm on a Monday and although we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it hadn't given up on raining! Ryan and me were relaxing talking over the recent footy rankings, at the ready for the sixth telephone call of the day to arrive. In due time we had a phone call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had arrived at the Shell filling station in Heightington and filled petrol in a diesel racing green Peugeot 104 lease car by mistake. The poor lady was rather affected it seemed, saying "I simply cannot believe I've ruined the car! I'm so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot I was using a diesel!" I just asked her to relax and not to fret, plus that these things regrettably do happen. She had managed to move the vehicle to a safe space and, because it was just a few minutes off from us, we were able to get to the woman rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she was able to once again go back to the motel she was lodging in. Despite the fact we got extremely wet, it was all rewarding seeing her drive away calm and not so anxious. One more fuel drain in Worcestershire done well in my opinion!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, can be a significant issue to handle in an automobile - especially in advanced common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol will result in idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both situations pretty simply.

Take note though that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will likely be totally water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to reach the storage and remove the fuel. We have performed numerous 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.
