It was about eight pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless afternoon, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Paul and me were relaxing there going over the footy, waiting around for the sixth job to arrive. Before long we had the call from a young lady on a business trip who had pulled into the Tesco filling garage in Blakelands and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel friend's Volvo V90 rental car. She was fairly distressed apparently, stating "I can not believe that I have wrecked the car! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol car I had forgot I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to relax and not to fret, also that such things sadly do happen. She had managed to relocate the car into a safe spot and, seeing that it was just a short distance off from the office, we were able to reach the customer right away.

The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel tank placed in the rear of your garden full of unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous domestic and business premises in Buckinghamshire for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.

No matter if the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a few drums in an outbuilding, providing we can access it, we could certainly empty it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be an important matter to address in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel may well contribute to idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not remedied fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both situations pretty simply.

Remember that whenever the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will likely be completely water-logged and useless.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Blakelands

Now I am not actually excessively interested in running on Sundays, and last week was no different. I'd just departed the wife and kids after eating a tasty dinner prepared by the missus, and I was on the way to help a fellow who had put the wrong fuel in his wife's Mercedes Sprinter 3500. He was stationed in Blakelands so it wouldn't be a long time before I reached him. As I drove up behind the car and stepped out he explained to me "Praise God! I stupidly had my mind on other considerations and didn't ascertain I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I brought on any problems by running it?" I said that there should not be any kind of damage and that I would personally get the contaminated fuel drained as soon as possible. It goes without saying that I drained the wrong fuel from the vehicle and filled up with some correct fuel, and so yet another satisfied client was able to continue on their ride without any fuss. He did not stop thanking me, and that is actually what helps make carrying out work on Sundays in Buckinghamshire a tiny bit easier 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.
