The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally an important matter to handle in an automobile - particularly in current day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel may lead to idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain than water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both situations very expediently.

Keep in mind however that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will be completely wet and useless.

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.
