The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked close to a car parking bay we should be able to access the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel may well lead to idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both cases pretty swiftly.

Be aware that whenever the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Cranfield

It can't be fun grinding to a halt in a vehicle full of the wrong fuel halfway down the road. Our last customer who filled her car with the wrong fuel (new-shape Mercedes-Benz CL-Class) in Cranfield suffered with exactly this difficulty: "Obviously I incorrectly put unleaded in my diesel car like a perfect idiot.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Cranfield - Fuel Rescue Cranfield

This really was what is called the graveyard shift. It was roughly sunrise and nobody was about. It was rather quiet thus far, and Mark and I were relaxing perusing a number of old newspapers. It was a rare quiet time in Bedfordshire. It was in fact so peaceful that the moment the telephone eventually rang it made me jump! The customer on the opposite end told me: "I only just concluded my night shift and stupidly put the wrong fuel in the diesel super Citron Picasso by mistake". I got him to let us know where he was located and we hit the road, arriving in Cranfield less than half an hour later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed from the motor. He said thanks for coming so fast. As we were going back to the depot we noticed two young women at the edge of the road who appeared to have a flat. So we stopped to help them change it, 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.
