It was around 6 pm on a Saturday and although we were promised a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! Paul and I were relaxing going over the sports rankings, waiting for the sixth telephone call for the day to come in. Finally we got a call from a young lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the Tesco petrol station in Oxcroft Estate and put the wrong fuel in a diesel dirty red Daewoo Nubira rental in error. She was rather distressed it seemed, telling me "I still cannot believe I have wrecked the car! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot that I was operating a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that these things sadly often happen. She was able to get the vehicle into a safe space and, since it was only a short distance from our van, we were able to get to the lady without delay. The bad fuel was removed so she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was living at. Although we got really soaked, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away relaxed and less apprehensive. One more job in Derbyshire well done in my books!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually a significant situation to handle in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol can certainly trigger idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied fully, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both cases fairly swiftly.

Bear in mind that if ever the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will likely be completely water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to an automobile parking spot we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.

Wrong Fuel Assist Oxcroft Estate - Wrong Fuel in Car Oxcroft Estate

I'd had a perfect afternoon hiking during my off day and was feeling contented with myself the following morning as I set out to aid a new family who were holidaying in Oxcroft Estate. They had conked out after filling the wrong fuel in their cobalt blue Ford Escort, and they were roughly half an hour's travel away. I showed up at their car and smiled to myself as I listened to the lady telling her partner off for being so silly. "Precisely how could you actually manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I wanted to tell her that this kind of thing comes to pass on a regular basis in Derbyshire and that it is absolutely nothing to stress about, and yet he all the same had an earful by his wife. Unlucky chap. In any case, I extracted all of the polluted fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. While they drove down the road I shouted goodbye and wondered what her indoors would ask me if ever I did the very same thing... I'd never live it down!

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.
