It was just before 7 pm on a Friday and even though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it hadn't given up on pouring! Paul and I were sitting discussing the football results, at the ready for the seventh job to arrive. Finally we received a call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had pulled into the Shell filling garage in Isley Walton and filled petrol in a diesel super Volkswagen Jetta rental car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was very irritated by the sounds of it, stating "I can not believe I have ruined the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" We asked her to calm down and not to fret, plus that things like this unfortunately often happen. She had managed to get the vehicle to a safe position and, seeing as it was only a short distance from the office, we could arrive at her almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she was able to return to the motel she was living in. Despite the fact that we got fairly soaked, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive off satisfied and not so concerned. A fuel drain in Leicestershire done well in my books!

The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel container laying in the back of the garden with unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to a number of privately owned and industrial properties in Leicestershire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to get rid of and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps numerous containers in a shed, provided that we can access it, we could certainly drain it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually a significant condition to take care of in an automobile - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your fuel will often lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with fully, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain when compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both situations fairly expediently.

Keep in mind though that whenever the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will undoubtedly be completely 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.
