It was close to 8 pm on a Saturday and although we were promised a rainless evening, it hadn't ceased raining! Ryan and me were relaxing talking over the weekend's sports, prepared for the sixth fuel drain for the day to arrive. Eventually we got the phone call from a girl on a company trip who had pulled into the Texaco petrol garage in Penn Street and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel father's Fiat Scudo hire car. She was fairly irritated it seemed, saying "I still cannot believe I have messed up the car! I am just so used to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I had didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to worry, and that these things unfortunately do happen. She was able to get the vehicle into a secure position and, seeing as it was just a few minutes away from our van, we could arrive at the lady fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could go home to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Even though we got extremely drenched, it was all rewarding to see her drive away calm and much less anxious. Yet another job in Buckinghamshire done well in my opinion!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious situation to handle in a vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol can result in idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed effectively, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both situations pretty swiftly.

Remember that if the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to an automobile parking bay we should be able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.

This was certainly an unsociable time to be awake. It was roughly 2:30 in the morning and nobody was around. It was fairly dead thus far, and Ryan and I were relaxing looking through a few old papers. It was a rare quiet time in Buckinghamshire. It was that calm that when the phone inevitably rang it made me jump! The voice said: "I've ended my evening shift and foolishly poured petrol in the wife's Mitsubishi Excel". I got him to tell us just where he was and we hit the road, getting to him in Penn Street less than an hour later. The fuel was taken out from the engine. He said thanks for coming so promptly. As we were returning to the office we noticed two girls at the side of the road who seemed to have a puncture. Obviously we stopped to change it, to their elation.

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.
