It was before 6 pm on a Thursday and although we were assured a rainless day, it hadn't stopped raining! Ryan and I were seated there talking about the footy, waiting for the next fuel drain that day to come in. Before long we received the call from a woman on a company excursion who had pulled into the Tesco filling station in Pigdon and filled petrol in her diesel blue Audi A8 hire car in error. The unfortunate thing was fairly troubled it seemed, stating "I still cannot believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car I had did not remember I was using a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that things like this do happen.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant condition to address in an automobile - specifically in modern day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel will often bring about idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both circumstances pretty quickly.

Keep in mind though that so long as the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will probably be totally wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually 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 a car or truck parking bay we should be able to access the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.

Wrong Fuel Assist Pigdon - Wrong Fuel in Car Pigdon

I enjoyed a terrific day fishing during my holiday and was feeling delighted the following day as I set out to help a new family on holiday in Pigdon. They stopped after inserting the wrong fuel into their grey Fiat Bravo, and the car was around half an hour away. I got there at their position and smirked as I heard to the wife telling her hubby off for being so silly. "Precisely how could you actually find a way to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I attempted to clarify that this takes place quite frequently in Northumberland and that it's truly nothing at all to be concerned about, even so he yet still got his ear bent. Unlucky chap. In any case, I drained out all the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the appropriate fuel. While watching them drive away I waved good bye and considered what my missus would ask me in the event that I did the very same thing... I'd never hear the end of it!

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.
