It was just before 6 pm on a Thursday and even though we were promised a dry night, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Brian and me were sitting there commenting on the footy results, at the ready for the 6th job of the day to arrive. Finally we got the phone call from a lady on a business excursion who had pulled into the BP petrol garage in Hopsford and filled petrol in her diesel son's Suzuki Reno lease car by mistake. She was very agitated by the sounds of it, telling me "I just can't believe I have destroyed the car! I'm so used to filling my petrol car that I had didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I just instructed her to calm down and not to be concerned, plus that these things often happen. She had managed to move the vehicle to a protected area and, since it was only a few minutes from our van, we could reach her rather quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she was able to once again go back to the motel she was residing in. Although we got pretty drenched, it was all rewarding seeing her drive away relaxed and much less anxious. Another job in Warwickshire well done in my mind!

Motorboat Fuel Drains

So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a vehicle parking bay we can access the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally an important matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol can cause idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both situations fairly easily.

You should know however that if the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will probably be completely wet and useless.

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.
