It was just after seven pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Mark and me were sitting there commenting on the recent golf results, at the ready for the seventh fuel drain for the day to arrive. In due time we received the call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had pulled into the BP filling station in Putley Green and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel matte black BMW 550 rental in error. The poor lady was somewhat agitated by the sounds of it, saying "I still cannot believe I've ruined the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just told her to relax and not to fret, also that things like this unfortunately can happen. She had managed to maneuver the car into a secure spot and, seeing as it was no more than a short distance away from where we were, we could reach her without delay. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could get back to the Premier Inn she was living in. Despite the fact that we got fairly drenched, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive home contented and a lot less stressed. Yet another fuel drain in Herefordshire done well in my mind!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be a significant situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel is going to result in idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both cases fairly expediently.
You should know though that if ever the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.
Motorboat Fuel Drains
If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored close to a car or truck parking spot we can gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We've successfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Putley Green
I am not actually so interested in working Sundays, and a week ago was no different. I had just departed home following a tasty lunch cooked by the wife, and I was on my way to deal with a guy who had filled the incorrect fuel in his canary yellow Saab 9000. He was stationed in Putley Green hence I was with him rapidly. Just as I pulled up right behind the car and stepped out he explained to me "Praise the Lord! I foolishly had my attention on other things and did not perceive I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I brought on some harm by driving it?" I determined that generally there shouldn't be any kind of problems and that I'd personally remove the contaminated fuel as quickly as possible. Needless to say I drained the contaminated fuel from the car and put in the appropriate fuel, and so another happy client had the ability to carry on with their ride without hassle. He couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and that is what tends to make carrying out work on Sundays in Herefordshire a tiny bit easier in my opinion!

A woman working in Putley Green phoned us as soon as she had tried to get her misfueled car to work. She had filled the wrong fuel in her diesel company's Mercedes Sprinter and, like many prior to her, believed that she could basically fill the car with diesel and it'd be fine. The vehicle was spluttering and then it died when she came to the entrance of her work. We quickly started on the fuel drain after she called and got it resolved in an hour while she was at the office. She came out soon after and thanked us stating, "I'm very glad you fixed 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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
