It was before 10 pm on a Monday and while we were promised a rainless night, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! James and I were relaxing there commenting on the weekend's tennis results, waiting for the next call of the day to arrive. Eventually we had a phone call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had pulled into the Esso petrol station in Burston and put the wrong fuel in a diesel silver VW Jetta III lease car. The poor lady was somewhat affected it seemed, telling me "I cannot believe I've wrecked the car! I'm just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" We asked her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that things like this regrettably do happen. She was able to get the vehicle to a safe position and, because it was no more than a few minutes away from the office, we were able to reach her swiftly. The bad fuel was taken out so she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was living at. Despite the fact we got pretty soaked, it was all worth it to watch her drive home relaxed and less anxious. A fuel drain in Norfolk done well in my books!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually an important situation to take care of in a car - specifically in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank will likely contribute to idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove when compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both cases rather expediently.

Remember that any time the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

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.
