It was before 9 pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Paul and I were seated there going over the golf rankings, ready for the next telephone call that day to come in. Finally we had the call from a woman on a business excursion who had pulled into the Shell filling station in Dillington and put petrol in her diesel spotless Mitsubishi Chariot lease car. The unfortunate lady was quite irritated apparently, telling me "I still can't believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" We instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, and also that things like this can happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a safe area and, because it was just a few minutes off from us, we could reach the lady almost instantly. The bad fuel was drained so she could once again go back to the hotel she was staying at. Although we got very drenched, it was all worth it to see her drive home calm and a lot less concerned. A job in Cambridgeshire well done in my mind!

Marine Fuel Drains
If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to access the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've successfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.
Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a significant issue to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.
Having water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol is likely to cause idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both cases fairly expediently.
Keep in mind however that as long as the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly be totally 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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
