It was before five pm on a Monday and though we were assured a rainless evening, it had not ceased raining! Ray and I were seated there commenting on the rugby, ready for the 6th fuel drain that day to come in. Finally we received a call from a girl on a business excursion who had gone to the Shell petrol station in Woodditton and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel blue Audi RS 4 rental car in error. The poor thing was fairly affected by the sounds of it, saying "I cannot believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I am so used to filling my petrol car that I completely did not remember I was using a diesel!" I just instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, and that things like this can happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a secure area and, because it was only a few minutes away from our van, we could find the lady without delay. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was living in. Although we got very soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive off satisfied and a lot less anxious. Another misfuel correction in Cambridgeshire done well in my opinion!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually a significant issue to address in an automobile - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your fuel will often contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both cases rather easily.

Take note however that if the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a car parking bay we should be able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have successfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.

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.
