It was about 5 pm on a Thursday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! James and me were sitting discussing the recent tennis, waiting around for the seventh job of the day to come in. In due time we had a call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had pulled into the BP filling station in Great Stretton and filled petrol in a diesel mom's Nissan Murano hire car. The unfortunate lady was fairly distressed apparently, saying "I still can't believe I have destroyed the car! I'm just so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I totally didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I asked her to settle back and not to fret, plus that these things can happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a secure spot and, because it was just a few minutes off from the office, we were able to get to the lady swiftly. The wrong fuel was drained and she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got extremely soaked, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away satisfied and a lot less apprehensive. A misfuel correction in Leicestershire done well in my opinion!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be an important condition to address in an automobile - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel may bring about idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both circumstances fairly simply.

Be aware though that if the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will undoubtedly be totally wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a car parking bay we should be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.

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.
