It was just before 6 pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain!

Eventually we received the phone call from a lovely women on a business trip who had pulled into the BP petrol station in Northwick and filled petrol in a diesel dirty red Skoda Octavia lease car in error. The poor thing was rather affected apparently, stating "I simply cannot believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol car I totally did not remember I was driving a diesel!"

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to an automobile parking bay we are able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be an important issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel is likely to result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both circumstances quite expediently.

Be aware that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will probably be completely 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:

    • Loss of engine power – can feel like the car has run out of fuel

    • 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.

  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.
