The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel tank in the rear of your premises with unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial premises in East Sussex for the purpose of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps even numerous containers in a shed, as long as we can get to it, we could certainly empty it for you.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually an important condition to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel tank may well produce idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both situations pretty easily.

Bear in mind though that if the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will likely be totally wet and ineffective.

Ahhh, that was a fantastic night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 am on a sunny Bank Holiday Monday and I was en route to help an elder lady who put petrol in her diesel grass green Lexus IS in Lower Willingdon. I had been advised she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and broken down on a rural lane along the way to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I got the location punched into the Satnav and arrived in less than 60 minutes. I reached the vehicle and extracted the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. Whilst I was doing it she said, "Now I'm becoming somewhat forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle taking diesel as I'd only bought it a few days back after my other car, which I'd owned for in excess of thirty years, eventually gave up the ghost". I got the drain completed and she gifted me a toffee and said thank you. Such a delightful East Sussex lady!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Lower Willingdon

I'm certainly not so enthusiastic about carrying out work on weekends, and last week was the same. I had just left home after a lovely lunch made for us by the missus, and I was on the way to help a gentleman after he had filled the wrong fuel in his white Mercedes-Benz S-Class. He was situated in Lower Willingdon hence it wasn't a long time before I arrived with him. Just as I drove up behind the vehicle and started work he explained to me "Praise God! I incredibly had my concentration on other considerations and did not grasp that I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Have I created any damage through driving it?" I stated truth be told there should not be any kind of harm and that also I'd remove the contaminated fuel as soon as possible for him. As expected I removed the contaminated fuel from the car and filled up with some appropriate fuel, and one more satisfied customer could carry on with his trip without any subsequent difficulty. The man could not stop saying thanks to me, and this tends to make earning a living on weekends in East Sussex that little better for me personally!

A young lady working in Lower Willingdon phoned us as soon as she had managed to get her wrong fueled car to work. She had filled petrol in her diesel burgundy red Ford Transit and, like plenty prior to her, thought that she would be able to simply fill the car with diesel and it'd run okay. The engine was spluttering and then it stopped when she got to the the front of her office. We promptly went to work on the fuel drain after she called and got it resolved within an hour while she was at the office. She came outside when we finished and thanked us stating, "I'm extremely glad you sorted my car."

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.

Standard Misfueling Warning signs:

  • Loss in vehicle power
