It was just after ten pm on a Friday and while we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it hadn't given up on raining! Brian and I were resting discussing the weekend's tennis rankings, prepared for the sixth telephone call that day to arrive. Finally we got a phone call from a girl on a business trip who had gone to the BP filling station in Tormarton and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel dark green Fiat Uno rental by mistake. The unfortunate lady was rather irritated by the sounds of it, stating "I simply can't believe I've destroyed the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to settle back and not to fret, plus that such things regrettably happen. She managed to relocate the car into a secure space and, as it was just a few minutes away from our van, we could reach the lady rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was removed and she could get back to the hotel she was lodging at. Even though we got really drenched, it was all rewarding to see her drive off calm and less anxious.

The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to gain access to the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've completed numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a serious issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel can certainly lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both circumstances fairly expediently.

Take note however that whenever the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will be totally wet and unusable.

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.
