The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually an important issue to handle in a vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your fuel may well result in idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both circumstances fairly quickly.

Take note that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we are able to access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.

Wrong Fuel in Car North Yorkshire - Petrol in Diesel Car West Haddlesey

I am not so hot for doing work on weekends, and a while back was the same. I'd only just left the wife and kids after a wonderful roast cooked for us by the better half, and I was en route to deal with a fellow who had filled the wrong fuel in his shiny BMW 5 Series. He was located in West Haddlesey so I arrived with him quickly. Just as I pulled up right behind the vehicle and got out he told me "Praise the Almighty! I foolishly had my attention on something else and failed to realise I have put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Is it possible I brought about any problems because of starting it?" I explained generally there should not be any damage and that I would get the wrong fuel drained immediately for him. It goes without saying that I drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle and put in some suitable fuel, and so yet another content customer had the ability to carry on with their trip without any hassle. The man could hardly stop thanking me, and that can make working on weekends in North Yorkshire just that tiny bit easier to me!

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.
