The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually an important condition to deal with in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol will lead to idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain in comparison with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both cases pretty swiftly.

Keep in mind that if the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored close to a car or truck parking spot we can gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.


Wrong Fuel in Car in BD23 Postcode - Malham Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a fantastic night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 am on a gloomy Bank Holiday Monday and we were on the way to assist an elder lovely lady who had put petrol in her diesel classic Cadillac CTS in Malham. I had been advised she drove away from the filling station and stranded on a backwater road on the way to pay a visit to her godchildren. I popped the location into the TomTom and was with her in less than an hour. I got to the location and drained the wrong fuel in the car car. While I was doing it she said to me, "I have been becoming somewhat forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the car working with diesel seeing that I'd only acquired it a few days ago because my old car, which I'd owned for over 30 years, finally died". I finished the drain and she gave me a Murray mint and thanked me for my work. What a lovely North Yorkshire lady!

It's no fun breaking down in a vehicle contaminated with the incorrect fuel on the road. Our most recent customer who filled her diesel car with petrol (new-shape VW Passat) in Malham had precisely that difficulty: "You probably know that I erroneously filled my petrol car with diesel .

Wrong Fuel Doctor Malham - Fuel Rescue Malham

A woman living in Malham phoned us shortly after she managed to get her wrong fueled vehicle to work. She had put unleaded in her diesel sombre grey Chrysler Grand Voyager and, like plenty prior to her, imagined that she could basically top up her car with diesel and it'd be fine. The car was spluttering and then it stopped when she reached the entrance of her office. We quickly went to work on the fuel drain following her call and got it sorted inside an hour while she was at the office. She came outside when we finished and thanked us stating, "I'm extremely relieved you fixed my car."

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.
