It was close to 6 pm on a Thursday and while we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it hadn't ceased raining! Mark and me were relaxing talking over the weekend's golf, waiting for the seventh call of the day to come in. Eventually we received the call from a girl on a business trip who had gone to the Sainsburys filling garage in Donhead St Andrew and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel silver Kia Optima lease car. She was somewhat distressed by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply can't believe that I've messed up the car! I'm so used to filling my petrol vehicle I had didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I instructed her to relax and not to worry, and also that these things often happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle to a protected spot and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes off from the office, we could reach her quickly. The contaminated fuel was drained so she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Despite the fact that we got pretty soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive home relaxed and much less stressed. Another misfuel correction in Wiltshire done well in my books!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually an important matter to take care of in a car - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in fuel is going to bring about idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both situations fairly simply.
Bear in mind however that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and unusable.
Marine Fuel Drains
In the event that there is the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help remove it. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored close to a car parking spot we will be able to access the tanks and remove the fuel. We have performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.

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.

- 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.

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.
- 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.
- 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.
