It was before eight pm on a Wednesday and though we were promised a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped raining! Brian and me were sitting there commenting on the golf rankings, waiting for the 6th job for the day to arrive. Finally we got a phone call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling station in Radley Green and filled petrol in a diesel trusty Seat Arosa rental in error. She was very affected it seemed, crying "I just can't believe I have messed up the car! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol car I had didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that things like this unfortunately often happen. She was able to relocate the car into a secure space and, seeing that it was no more than a short distance from where we were, we were able to find the woman almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Although we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive off relaxed and less anxious. A fuel drain in Essex done well in my books!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel will often contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both situations rather easily.

Bear in mind that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one is going to be totally wet and unusable.

Ahhh, that was a good night of sleep! It was 7:00 am on a sunny Saturday and I was en route to help an old woman after she put contaminated fuel in her diesel shiny Lexus RX in Radley Green. She informed us that she had left the petrol station and pulled up in a backwater lane along the way to visit her grandchildren. I got her location plugged straight into the TomTom and was on-scene within 60 minutes. I turned up at the destination and drained the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. As I was doing it she told me, "I'm becoming rather absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle working with diesel seeing that I had just acquired it a week ago because my previous one, which I owned for more than 30 years, inevitably died on me". I completed the drain and she offered me a peppermint and thanked me for my hard work. What a pleasant Essex 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.
