It was before 9 pm on a Monday and while we were promised a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! James and me were sitting going over the tennis results, waiting for the sixth job to come in. Eventually we got a phone call from a young lady on a company trip who had arrived at the Tesco petrol station in Peasehill and filled petrol in her diesel trusty Audi S8 rental by mistake. She was pretty troubled apparently, saying "I simply can't believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I am so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I had did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that such things do happen. She managed to move the car to a secure position and, because it was no more than a few minutes off from us, we could arrive at the woman rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was removed and she was able to go home to the motel she was staying in. Even though we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worthwhile to see her drive away satisfied and not so concerned. A misfuel correction in Derbyshire done well in my mind!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a car parking bay we should be able to gain access to the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a serious issue to take care of in a car - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol is likely to result in idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed properly, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both circumstances pretty quickly.

Be aware that as long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will likely be thoroughly wet and useless.

A relatively concerned motorist phoned us from the Shell petrol station at Derbyshire to inform us that he put unleaded into his diesel well worn Mazda; he wasn't totally sure how he'd managed to do it. We explained to him it was no situation and quickly had our man out to him to drain the incorrect fuel from his tank. Having purged the contaminated fuel, he was swiftly back behind the wheel. He told us; "I can't believe I filled my car with the wrong fuel. And the gentleman who was sent to carry out the fuel drain was extremely very good - he did not make me seem a fool."

This was certainly the graveyard shift. It was close to dawn and almost noone was around. It had been rather uneventful until now, and Ryan and I were sitting around looking at a number of old magazines. It was an unusual tranquil hour in Derbyshire. Actually it was that relaxing that the instant the phone eventually rang it made me jump! The voice on the phone said: "I've only just concluded my night shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in a husband's Suzuki Vitara by mistake". I got him to inform us where he was situated and we set off, arriving in Peasehill not as much as half an hour later. The fuel was cleaned up and removed from the car. He said thanks a lot for arriving so quickly. As we were coming back home we found two young ladies at the side of the street who seemed to have a puncture. Accordingly we got out 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.
