It was just after ten pm on a Saturday and though we were assured a dry afternoon, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Paul and me were relaxing there going over the weekend's rugby, ready for the 6th fuel drain for the day to arrive. Inevitably we had a phone call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had arrived at the Esso petrol garage in Sharrington and filled petrol in a diesel stylish Isuzu i-Series lease car by mistake. The poor lady was somewhat agitated it seemed, crying "I simply cannot believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol car that I completely forgot that I was running a diesel!" I just instructed her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and that such things regrettably happen. She was able to relocate the car to a safe position and, because it was just a short distance off from us, we could find her almost instantly. The wrong fuel was taken out and she could go home to the hotel she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got pretty drenched, it was all rewarding to see her drive off contented and a lot less worried. Another fuel drain in Norfolk well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important matter to take care of in a car - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank can easily cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with properly, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both cases pretty easily.

Take note though that so long as the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will likely be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to an automobile parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.

A lady had stopped on a street, Sharrington just after having put petrol in her diesel car. She was crying and truly distressed as she had put £50 of petrol in her diesel car. As she contacted us we made an effort to calm her as best we could, reassuring her that it would be fine. By the time we arrived with her she was not troubled any more and was interested in watching our fuel drainer carry out the fuel drain on her deep grey Mitsubishi Challenger. Afterwards she said: "My car is akin to my child, I just got it and thus it really worried me that I had put a whole lot of wrong fuel in it. I'm so happy that it was easily fixable."

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.
