It was before 7 pm on a Saturday and though we were guaranteed a dry day, it had not stopped pouring! Paul and I were resting discussing the rugby rankings, waiting for the sixth call to come in. Eventually we received the call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol garage in Netherstoke and put petrol in a diesel deep grey Mazda rental car. The poor thing was very affected it seemed, saying "I just can't believe I have wrecked the car! I am just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" We advised her to settle back and not to fret, and also that such things sadly do happen. She managed to move the car into a protected space and, because it was only a few miles away from the office, we were able to get to the lady rather quickly. The wrong fuel was drained so she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was lodging at. Even though we got thoroughly wet, it was all rewarding to watch her drive home calm and much less concerned. One more misfuel correction in Dorset done well in my mind!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant situation to deal with in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank can potentially contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both circumstances fairly expediently.

You should know that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at docks 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 VA 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.
