Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important condition to address in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol is likely to cause idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both cases quite expediently.
Bear in mind that if the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and unusable.
Boat Fuel Drains
If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to parking bay we can reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have successfully done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.
Wrong Fuel in Car in KT24 Postcode - West Horsley Misfueling
Ahhh, that was a good night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 am on a warm Monday and we were on the way to assist an older sweetheart who put petrol in her diesel beautiful Cadillac XLR in West Horsley. She informed us that she drove away from the filling station and broken down on a backwater lane en route to visit her family. I punched the location straight into the TomTom and got there inside 60 minutes. I turned up at the stricken lady and removed the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. As I was doing the drain she explained, "I am getting somewhat forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle needing diesel seeing that I'd only got it a week ago after my other car, which I'd used for more than 30 years, eventually stopped working". I got the drain completed and she offered me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. Such a delightful Hammersmith and Fulham woman!

Wrong Fuel Assist West Horsley - Wrong Fuel in Car West Horsley
I had enjoyed a perfect afternoon hiking during my day off and was feeling cheerful the next working day as I was en route to assist a new family on vacation in West Horsley. They had stopped after putting the wrong fuel in their red Volkswagen Touareg 2, and were close to an hour away. I showed up at their location and smiled while I heard to the girl telling her husband off for turning out to be so stupid. "Just how could you possibly be able to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she told him. I wanted to clarify that this happens on a regular basis in Hammersmith and Fulham and that it's really nothing at all to fret about, even so he still got an ear bashing. I felt genuine sympathy for the chap. Anyhow, I extracted all the contaminated fuel, flushed the engine and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. While they drove down the road I mouthed bon voyage and pondered on what my missus would tell me if ever I did the same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances live it down!

I was happy by both your speed and your prices". It goes without saying that we arrived rapidly and purged the engine after flushing all of the unleaded from the diesel tank.

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 VA 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.
