It was after 8 pm on a Tuesday and even though we were assured a rainless day, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Paul and me were relaxing there discussing the football rankings, prepared for the next call to come in. Inevitably we received a call from a lady on a company excursion who had gone to the Texaco filling garage in Eaton Bishop and filled petrol in a diesel modified Peugeot 307 lease car in error. The unfortunate thing was quite agitated apparently, telling me "I simply can't believe I have ruined the car! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I completely didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I just asked her to calm down and not to be concerned, and also that such things regrettably happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a protected position and, because it was just a few minutes away from where we were, we could reach the lady fairly quickly. The bad fuel was taken out so she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was lodging in. Although we got really drenched, it was all worth it seeing her drive off relaxed and a lot less apprehensive. A job in Herefordshire well done in my opinion!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be an important issue to handle in an automobile - especially in modern-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in fuel will likely result in idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both circumstances pretty quickly.

Be aware though that if the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated near to a vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have successfully done many 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.

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.
