The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we are able to access the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a serious issue to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in fuel may trigger idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both situations fairly quickly.

Remember however that so long as the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one is going to be totally water-logged and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Sidemoor

We not too long ago got a phone call about a businessman who put the incorrect fuel in his boss' Audi Coupe GT in Sidemoor. He had broken down on the road. "After adding petrol in my diesel car I didn't recognise the quandary up until I conked out. You removed the wrong fuel from my car and got it running once again. I was amazed as a result of both how swift you were and your rates". Of course we were on-scene promptly and flushed the engine after flushing all of the wrong fuel from the diesel tank. When he arrived our fuel drainer said the customer was fuming, but was satisfied after the fuel drain.

It truly was what we call the graveyard shift. It was around 3am and almost noone was stirring. It had become quite uneventful until now, and Ryan and I were sitting about perusing several old papers. It was a rare peaceful time in Worcestershire. It was indeed so peaceful that the instant my mobile finally rang it made me jump! The customer on the phone said: "I have just ended my night shift and stupidly put the wrong fuel in the diesel baby blue Land Rover Range Rover Sport". I asked him to let us know exactly where the car was situated and we hit the road, ending up in Sidemoor less than an hour later. The fuel was removed from the car and he thanked us for coming so rapidly. While we were heading back to base we found two young women at the side of the street who seemed like they had a flat. So we pulled over to change it, to their delight.

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.
