It was before 5 pm on a Friday and while we were assured a dry night, it had not given up on pouring! Mark and I were resting discussing the weekend's footy rankings, at the ready for the sixth call for the day to arrive. Finally we had a phone call from a young lady on a business trip who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling station in Barnhill and put the wrong fuel in her diesel metallic yellow Kia Soul hire car by mistake. She was fairly troubled apparently, stating "I just can't believe that I've destroyed the car! I'm just so used to putting petrol in my petrol car that I completely forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I advised her to relax and not to fret, and that such things do happen. She managed to move the vehicle to a secure space and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes off from our van, we could find the lady almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was removed so she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Even though we got fairly drenched, it was all rewarding seeing her drive home calm and not so anxious. A job in Cheshire well done in my opinion!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a significant situation to handle in a car - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank will likely lead to idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of than water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both situations very quickly.

Take note however that as long as the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one is going to be completely wet and unusable.

We've been called out to many privately owned and commercial properties in Cheshire to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages.

Ahhh, that was a fantastic night's sleep! It was 7:00 on a bright Wednesday and we were on the way to assist an older sweetheart who put contaminated fuel in her diesel yellow Mercedes CLK-Class in Barnhill. She told us that she had left the petrol station and was broken down in a country road on route to visit her grandchildren. I got her location plugged straight into the TomTom and arrived inside an hour. I got to the vehicle and drained the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. Whilst I was doing it she said to me, "Now I'm becoming quite absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the vehicle taking diesel as I'd only bought it a week back when my old one, which I'd had for about 30 years, eventually died". I got the drain completed and she offered me a peppermint and said thanks. What a precious Cheshire woman!

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.
