It was before five pm on a Wednesday and while we were promised a rainless night, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ray and I were resting there talking over the recent golf, prepared for the sixth fuel drain to arrive. Eventually we had the call from a girl on a business expedition who had arrived at the Texaco petrol station in Scamblesby and put petrol in her diesel white VW Beetle lease car by mistake. She was very agitated it seemed, telling me "I can't believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to worry, also that things like this unfortunately often happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a safe space and, because it was no more than a few miles away from the office, we could arrive at the customer almost instantly. The wrong fuel was drained so she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was living in. Although we got fairly wet, it was all worth it to watch her drive away contented and not so stressed. A job in Lincolnshire well done in my mind!

The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually a significant condition to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank will often produce idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out fully, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain in comparison with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both cases rather expediently.

Bear in mind though that as long as the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and unusable.

Waste Fuel Removal

We've been called out to numerous private and business premises in Lincolnshire to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages.

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 VA 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.
