It was about 6 pm on a Friday and even though we were assured a rainless afternoon, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Ryan and I were sitting going over the sports, waiting for the 8th telephone call for the day to arrive. In due time we received the phone call from a lady on a company expedition who had gone to the Tesco filling station in Soulbury and put the wrong fuel in a diesel grey Smart Forfour rental car. The unfortunate lady was very affected apparently, telling me "I simply can't believe I've ruined the car! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol car that I totally didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I asked her to calm down and not to fret, and also that such things unfortunately can happen. She was able to get the car to a secure space and, seeing that it was just a short distance from us, we could find the lady rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was taken out and she could return to the Premier Inn she was lodging at.

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Run Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Soulbury (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a comprehensive Buckinghamshire Out of Fuel Service. We're able to help to re-fill the car if you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill your car. They are also able to handle any of the most common issues which may go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be a significant condition to handle in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel can potentially bring about idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not addressed correctly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both circumstances pretty expediently.

Bear in mind that if the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and ineffective.

I enjoyed a perfect day hiking on my holiday and was feeling satisfied the following working day as I set out to help a new family who were on vacation in Soulbury. They stopped after adding the wrong fuel in their faithful Mazda626, and were around half an hour's travel away. I turned up at their location and smirked to myself as I heard to the wife telling off her hubby for being so daft. "Just how could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I tried to tell her that this happens quite frequently in Buckinghamshire and that it's really absolutely nothing to stress about, even so he still had an ear bashing. Poor guy. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed all the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the correct fuel. As they drove off I waved farewell and pondered on what my wife would tell me if perhaps I did the very same thing... I'd never ever hear the end of it!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Soulbury

I am not necessarily overly enthusiastic about doing the job weekends, and 2 weeks ago was the same. I'd just left home following a lovely Sunday roast cooked for me by the better half, and I was on my way to assist a gentleman because he filled the incorrect fuel in his gorgeous Subaru Impreza WRX. He was only in Soulbury therefore it wouldn't be long before I reached him. Just as I pulled up behind the car and started work he explained to me "Thank the Almighty! I stupidly had my concentration on other considerations and failed to perceive I had put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Have I inflicted any harm by running it?" I stated that there shouldn't be harm and that also I would personally drain the wrong fuel at once for him. As expected I got the fuel drained from the vehicle and put in the appropriate fuel, and then yet another content client had the ability to continue his traveling with no bother. He couldn't stop thanking me, and that is exactly what can make working on Sundays in Buckinghamshire that little bit better to me!

This was an unsociable hour to be awake. It was about 3:30am and nobody was about. It had been rather dead thus far, and me and Paul were loafing perusing a couple of old papers. This was an unusual quiet moment in Buckinghamshire. It was indeed so peaceful that the instant the telephone finally rang I leaped! The voice stated: "I have just finished my night shift and incredibly put petrol in the light green Skoda Yeti". I instructed him to inform us just where the car was and we left, reaching him in Soulbury under an hour later. The contaminated fuel was taken out from the vehicle and he said thank you for coming out so promptly. As we were coming back to the depot we spotted two women on the edge of the road who seemed like they had a flat. So we got out and helped them change it, much to their elation.

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.
