It was after 7 pm on a Tuesday and even though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! James and I were resting talking over the footy rankings, waiting around for the sixth fuel drain for the day to come in. Finally we got the phone call from a lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Texaco filling garage in West Yatton and filled petrol in a diesel sombre grey Isuzu i-Series hire car by mistake. She was fairly distressed by the sounds of it, crying "I can't believe that I have ruined the car! I am so used to filling up my petrol car that I had did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to fret, and also that these things sadly often happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle to a safe position and, seeing that it was just a short distance away from the office, we were able to arrive at the lady without delay. The bad fuel was drained and she could once again go back to the motel she was living in. Even though we got pretty wet, it was all worth it to see her drive home relaxed and a lot less worried.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to a motor vehicle parking bay we are able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have undertaken quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually an important issue to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel will produce idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both situations fairly easily.

You should know though that if the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will likely be totally 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.
