The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually a serious situation to address in an automobile - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel can produce idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both situations quite expediently.

Be aware though that as long as the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will probably be completely wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or secured close to a motor vehicle parking spot we can access the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.

Just had a great night of sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a warm Saturday and we were off to assist an old woman after she put petrol in her diesel sky blue Mazda MX-6 in Eudon Burnell. She informed us that she had left the filling station forecourt and was broken down on a rural road on route to pay a visit to her godchildren. I popped the location into the Satnav and arrived in less than an hour. I turned up at the location and removed the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. While I was doing it she explained, "Now I'm becoming relatively forgetful in my old age and forgot about the car needing diesel because I'd just purchased it several days back after my former one, which I had for over twenty years, finally stopped working". I completed the job and she presented me a peppermint and thanked me for my work. Such a pleasant Shropshire lady!

This was an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was around 3:30 in the morning and nobody was stirring. It was quite dead up to now, and John and I were loafing about perusing some old newspapers. That was an uncommon restful time in Shropshire. It was indeed that calm that the instant my mobile eventually rang it made me start! The motorist on the opposite end said: "I've just ended my overnight shift and foolishly poured the wrong fuel in my diesel creamy white Smart Fortwo in error". I asked him to tell us where the car was and we set off, arriving in Eudon Burnell less than 30 minutes later. The contaminated fuel was taken out from the motor and he thanked us for coming so quickly. As we were returning home we saw two young ladies at the side of the street who seemed like they had a flat. Accordingly we got out to help them change it, to their delight.

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.
