It was before eight pm on a Friday and even though we were promised a rainless day, it hadn't given up on raining! Ryan and I were seated there talking about the weekend's golf rankings, at the ready for the 8th job that day to arrive. Before long we received the phone call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had arrived at the Tesco filling station in Sherrington and filled petrol in her diesel mint condition Toyota Yaris hire car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was quite affected apparently, saying "I just can't believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I am just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I had did not remember I was running a diesel!" We asked her to settle back and not to fret, also that these things sadly often happen. She had managed to relocate the car to a protected area and, seeing that it was only a few minutes away from us, we were able to reach her quickly. The incorrect fuel was removed and she was able to return to the Travelodge she was living in. Although we got pretty wet, it was all worth the time seeing her drive home satisfied and not so concerned. One more misfuel correction in Wiltshire done well in my opinion!

The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a motor vehicle parking bay we can gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We have successfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a serious situation to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel can easily bring about idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both circumstances quite easily.

Be aware however that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one is going to be completely wet and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Sherrington

Now I'm certainly not excessively enthusiastic about carrying out work on weekends, and 2 weeks ago was the same. I had only just left the wife and kids after eating a wonderful Sunday roast prepared for us by the missus, and I was off to assist a fellow who put the wrong fuel in his wife's Hyundai Excel. He was only in Sherrington hence I arrived there soon. As I arrived at the vehicle and got out he told me "Thank the Almighty! I foolishly had my thoughts on other stuff and failed to grasp that I had put diesel in my petrol car. Have I caused problems because of driving it?" I determined that truth be told there shouldn't be harm and that I'd personally remove the fuel as quickly as possible for him. Needless to say I removed the contaminated fuel from the car and put in the appropriate fuel, and then another happy client was able to continue on their trip without any subsequent bother. He could not stop saying thanks to me, and this is actually what helps make operating on Sundays in Wiltshire just a tiny bit less painful in my opinion!

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.
