It was just after 10 pm on a Monday and even though we were promised a dry day, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and I were sitting commenting on the weekend's golf results, prepared for the 8th call to come in. Eventually we had the call from a young lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the Esso filling garage in Manningford Bohune and put the wrong fuel in her diesel canary yellow Saab 9-4X rental in error. She was very distressed it seemed, saying "I cannot believe that I've wrecked the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I totally forgot I was operating a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to worry, and also that things like this often happen. She had managed to move the car to a secure space and, as it was no more than a few minutes off from the office, we could reach her fairly quickly.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you get it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we can gain access to the storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a significant situation to handle in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel will likely bring about idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both cases quite swiftly.

You should know that so long as the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will be thoroughly wet and unusable.

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.
