The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious situation to handle in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol will often bring about idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out than water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both circumstances quite quickly.

Take note however that as long as the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one is going to be completely wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a car parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.

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.
