It was before 10 pm on a Monday and though we were assured a rainless evening, it had not stopped raining! Ryan and I were sitting there discussing the rugby, ready for the sixth fuel drain of the day to come in. In due time we had a call from a woman on a company excursion who had arrived at the Tesco filling garage in Westwick and put the wrong fuel in her diesel husband's BMW 3 Series rental. The poor thing was quite distressed apparently, crying "I can't believe I have ruined the car! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I had did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" I instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, also that such things unfortunately can happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a safe position and, seeing as it was no more than a few miles from where we were, we could reach the customer fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she was able to get back to the hotel she was living at. Despite the fact that we got very drenched, it was all worth it to see her drive home contented and less anxious. Another job in County Durham well done in my books!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly an important situation to address in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol will likely result in idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied effectively, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both situations rather easily.
Be aware that any time the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will likely be completely wet and unusable.

A lady from Westwick with a full car of youngsters in her diesel creamy white Toyota RAV4 had filled her vehicle with £40 of petrol at the Shell filling station. She called us crying and genuinely distraught as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel before and did not know what could happen to her car in doing so. We assured her that everything would be alright and that she would be in action very quickly. When we arrived on scene she was visible upset but while our fuel drainer got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down since she saw that something could be done and her car wasn't wrecked. She soon cheered up and was on the road again saying, "I just can't believe my bad luck putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Particularly with the children on board."

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:
- 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.
- 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 VA receipt.
- 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.
- 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.
