It was just after 7 pm on a Monday and although we were assured a dry and fresh night, it hadn't given up on raining! Ryan and I were sitting there going over the weekend's football rankings, waiting for the next job of the day to arrive. Inevitably we had the phone call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had gone to the BP filling station in Scotterthorpe and put the wrong fuel in her diesel beloved Volkswagen Beetle rental. The poor thing was fairly irritated apparently, crying "I simply can't believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot I was operating a diesel!" I just instructed her to calm down and not to worry, also that things like this unfortunately often happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle into a safe spot and, since it was no more than a short distance off from where we were, we were able to arrive at the woman almost instantly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was living in.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually a significant issue to deal with in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your fuel can certainly bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove when compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both cases quite easily.

Be aware however that if ever the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one is going to be totally wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored close to a motor vehicle parking bay we can reach the fuel storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.

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.
