The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a car parking bay we should be able to reach the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be an important issue to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel may contribute to idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both cases pretty expediently.

Remember though that whenever the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one will probably be completely water-logged and unusable.

A woman from Street Dinas with a full car of children in her diesel modified BMW Z4 M Roadster had put £50 of petrol at the Texaco petrol station. She contacted us sobbing and extremely distraught as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel and didn't know what might happen to her car because of it. We reassured her that all should be fine and that she would be back up and running quickly. When we arrived on scene she was still upset but while our technician began work on the fuel drain she calmed down because she recognised that help was at hand and her car wasn't wrecked. She soon enough brightened up and was on her way saying, "I really can't believe my luck putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Specifically with the little ones on board."

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.
