The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a motor vehicle parking bay we will be able to access the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious situation to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol can produce idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of fully, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both cases rather swiftly.

Bear in mind however that if the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will likely be totally wet and useless.


Wrong Fuel in Car in NN12 Postcode - Greens Norton Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a good night of sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a bright Saturday and I was off to assist an elder lovely lady after she put petrol in her diesel canary yellow Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 in Greens Norton. She informed us that she drove away from the petrol station and was stranded along a country road on route to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I popped the location straight into the Satnav and was with her inside an hour. I reached the car and extracted the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. While I was working she told me, "Now I'm getting somewhat absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the car working with diesel since I'd only bought it a few days ago after my previous car, which I owned for more than twenty five years, eventually broke down". I got the job done and she offered me a Murray mint and said thank you. What a delightful Northamptonshire woman!

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 VAT 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.
