It was after 7 pm on a Monday and though we were assured a rainless afternoon, it had not ceased raining! James and I were relaxing talking over the weekend's footy rankings, ready for the 6th call of the day to arrive. Inevitably we got the call from a woman on a business excursion who had arrived at the Shell petrol station in Burton End and filled petrol in a diesel apple green Toyota Yaris rental in error. She was rather agitated by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply can't believe I have destroyed the car! I'm just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember that I was running a diesel!" We advised her to relax and not to fret, and also that things like this can happen. She managed to move the vehicle into a secure spot and, seeing as it was only a short distance off from our van, we could get to the customer rather quickly. The bad fuel was extracted so she was able to get back to the hotel she was living at.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely a significant condition to take care of in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank can certainly lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both circumstances very swiftly.

You should know that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will be totally water-logged and unusable.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.

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.

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.
