It was close to 6 pm on a Friday and even though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! James and I were sitting going over the recent golf results, at the ready for the 8th job that day to arrive. Finally we had the call from a girl on a company excursion who had gone to the Tesco filling garage in Lipyeate and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel matte black Mercedes S-Class rental car. The unfortunate thing was quite troubled by the sounds of it, stating "I still can't believe I have messed up the car! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to relax and not to worry, plus that these things can happen. She was able to move the car to a safe space and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes off from where we were, we were able to get to her quickly. The incorrect fuel was drained so she could return to the hotel she was living at. Even though we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive off calm and not so stressed. One more job in Somerset well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant matter to handle in an automobile - specifically in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol can potentially produce idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both situations fairly simply.

Be aware however that if the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will be completely water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to an automobile parking spot we can gain access to the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have completed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.

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.
