The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Burwell (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a full Cambridgeshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to refill your vehicle in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump price) to fill the car. They will deal with any of the typical troubles which can come with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious matter to address in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel is likely to contribute to idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both circumstances fairly expediently.

Take note though that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one is going to be totally wet and useless.


Wrong Fuel in Car in CB25 Postcode - Burwell Misfueling

A motorist had stopped on a road, Burwell having just put the wrong fuel in her car. She was crying and fairly troubled as she had put £45 petrol in her diesel car. As she phoned us we attempted to relax her as best we could, reassuring her that all would be no problem. When we got to her she was not troubled any more and was quite interested in watching our engineer do the fuel drain on her aunt's Mercedes R-Class. Soon after she said: "My vehicle is akin to my child, I recently purchased it and it genuinely worried me that I had put so much wrong fuel in it. I'm happy that it was so very easily repairable."

We hold full Environment Agency licencing and full Public Liability Insurance for your own personal reassurance. Moreover, our technicians are fully proficient and knowledgeable in dealing with the majority of makes.

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.
