The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually a serious issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel can certainly trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of than water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both circumstances quite easily.

Bear in mind that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be totally wet and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a car parking bay we will be able to reach the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.

I'd had a perfect day hiking during my off day and felt satisfied the following day as I set out to aid a new couple who were vacationing in Drayton Beauchamp. They had pulled over after adding the wrong fuel into their metallic silver Land Rover Freelander, and the car was roughly half an hour away. I emerged at their location and laughed while I listened to the gal telling her hubby off for turning out to be so silly. "Precisely how could you actually be able to fill the car up using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I wanted to tell her that this situation goes on continuously in Buckinghamshire and that it is nothing at all to worry about, however he in spite of everything had an earful. I felt genuine sympathy for the boy. Anyways, I extracted the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the proper fuel. Watching them drive off I shouted farewell and wondered what my wife would do to me if ever I did the exact same thing... I would under no circumstances hear the end of it!

The engine was coughing and then it cut out when she reached the entrance of her work.

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.
