It was just after 8 pm on a Thursday and although we were promised a rainless evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Dan and me were resting there commenting on the recent rugby, waiting for the next fuel drain of the day to come in. Inevitably we had the phone call from a woman on a company trip who had pulled into the Tesco filling garage in Salle and put the wrong fuel in a diesel father's Dodge Challenger hire car in error. She was somewhat troubled by the sounds of it, crying "I still can't believe that I've destroyed the car! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot I was driving a diesel!" I just told her to relax and not to fret, also that such things unfortunately happen. She managed to move the vehicle into a safe space and, seeing that it was just a few miles away from where we were, we were able to find the lady quickly. The incorrect fuel was drained and she could get back to the motel she was living at.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly a significant issue to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel can easily trigger idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can solve both cases quite easily.

You should know though that any time the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will likely be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a car parking bay we can gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We've completed quite a few 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.
