It was about 8 pm on a Monday and while we were assured a dry afternoon, it had not ceased raining! Ryan and me were relaxing discussing the weekend's sports, waiting for the seventh call to come in. Eventually we got the phone call from a young lady on a company trip who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol garage in Lower Green and put the wrong fuel in her diesel creamy white Citron Zara rental car. She was fairly distressed apparently, crying "I can't believe that I have messed up the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I had didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" We told her to relax and not to fret, plus that things like this sadly often happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle into a safe space and, seeing as it was only a few minutes from us, we were able to find her without delay. The wrong fuel was drained so she was able to go home to the motel she was living in. Despite the fact that we got very soaked, it was all worth the time seeing her drive off contented and much less concerned. Yet another misfuel correction in Berkshire well done in my books!

The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally an important matter to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the fuel tank is likely to produce idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out fully, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both circumstances pretty expediently.

Be aware that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and unusable.

Run Out of Fuel Services

We can help to refill your vehicle any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and fill your car or truck. They are also able to take care of the common issues which may go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.


Wrong Fuel in Car in RG17 Postcode - Lower Green Misfueling

What a great night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 on a rainy Saturday and we were en route to assist an old lady who put contaminated fuel in her diesel company's VW Touareg in Lower Green. She told us that she had driven away from the filling station forecourt and stranded on a country lane on route to pay a visit to her godchildren. I punched the location into the Satnav and arrived inside an hour or so. I turned up at the stricken lady and extracted the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. While I was working she said, "I have been becoming relatively absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the car working with diesel as I had just bought it several days ago when my former one, which I had used for more than twenty years, finally broke down". I got the drain completed and she gave me a Murray mint and thanked me for my work. What a pleasant Berkshire woman!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Lower Green

I am certainly not so keen on carrying out work Sundays, and a week ago was the same. I'd just come away from home following a lovely dinner cooked for us by the wife, and I was en route to sort out a guy after he had filled the wrong petrol in his sunflower yellow MINI Countryman. He was somewhere in Lower Green thus I arrived with him soon. Just as I pulled up behind the car and got busy draining he said to me "Praise God! I stupidly had my thoughts on something else and failed to grasp that I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Have I caused any kind of problems simply by driving it?" I explained that there probably should not be harm and also that I'd get the contaminated fuel drained at once. As expected I got the wrong fuel drained from the vehicle and filled up with the suitable fuel, and thus yet another pleased motorist had the ability to carry on with their trip without any hassle. He could not stop saying thanks to me, and that is what makes carrying out work on weekends in Berkshire that little 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.
