It was close to 6 pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Ryan and me were resting there going over the recent footy, waiting around for the sixth job for the day to arrive. In due time we received the call from a girl on a business trip who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol station in Horfield and put petrol in her diesel canary yellow BMW 760 rental. The unfortunate thing was fairly troubled apparently, telling me "I simply cannot believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I totally forgot I was driving a diesel!" I told her to settle back and not to worry, plus that such things regrettably can happen.

We can help to fill up the car in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump price) to refill your car or truck. They will be able to handle any of the usual troubles which might accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your fuel tank may lead to idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain than water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both situations rather simply.

Keep in mind however that as long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

What a great night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 on a bright Sunday and we were en route to assist an elder sweetheart after she had put contaminated fuel in her diesel aunt's Audi Q7 in Horfield.

I got the job completed and she offered me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. What a precious Bristol woman!

I had appreciated a wonderful day golfing on my off day and was feeling cheerful with myself the next morning as I set off to help a young family away in Horfield. They had broken down after adding diesel into their gorgeous Audi V8, and were about an hour away. I arrived at their position and smiled while I heard to the girl chastising her spouse for actually being so confused. "Precisely how could you conceivably find a way to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I attempted to tell her that this takes place regularly in Bristol and that it's absolutely nothing to get worried about, and yet he yet still got an earful. I felt genuine sympathy for the lad. At any rate, I removed all the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. As they drove down the road I mouthed good bye and pondered on what my wife would ask me if perhaps I did the exact same thing... I'd personally never live it down!

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.
