The 3 things you NEED to know about petrol in diesel!


Run Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Shipton (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a full Gloucestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to re-fill your vehicle in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump prices) to fill up the car. They can also take care of the common issues that can accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is without question a significant condition to handle in a vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel will likely bring about idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both cases quite swiftly.

Remember that in the event that the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will probably be completely water-logged and unusable.


Wrong Fuel in Car in GL54 Postcode - Shipton Misfueling

Just had a good night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 am on a bright Tuesday and I was on the way to help an elder woman after she had put contaminated fuel in her diesel cyan Kia Sephia in Shipton. She told us that she drove away from the petrol station and stranded in a rural lane on the way to see her family. I punched her location in the TomTom and arrived in less than 60 minutes. I arrived at the stricken lady and extracted the contaminated fuel out of the car. While I was doing the drain she told me, "I have been becoming somewhat absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle taking diesel as I'd only just bought it a short while ago because my other one, which I'd had for in excess of 30 years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I got the job done and she gifted me a Murray mint and said thank you. Such a lovely Gloucestershire woman!

I had a fantastic day cycling during the weekend and felt delighted with myself the next working day as I set off to aid a new family who were holidaying in Shipton. They'd stopped after putting the wrong fuel in their boss' Renault Espace, and were close to an hour away. I arrived at their location and smirked while I heard to the girl berating her husband for actually being so stupid. "Precisely how could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I attempted to explain that this happens continuously in Gloucestershire and that it is nothing to fret about, but he still had his ear bent by his better half. Poor lad. Anyhow, I removed all of the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some proper fuel. Watching them drive away I mouthed bon voyage and thought about what my wife would say to me if ever I made the very same mistake... I'd personally never ever live it down!

We got a phone call from a gentleman whose spotless BMW 1 Series had stopped on a street after a misfuel. "I got the pumps confused and pumped petrol instead of diesel in my car . These guys came out and resolved the matter when my vehicle stopped." We drained the petrol from the diesel tank and flushed the fuel system meticulously afterwards and the motorist could then continue on with his deliveries.

This really was what is called an unsociable time to be awake. It was around 3 in the morning and hardly anyone was around. It had been fairly quiet until now, and me and Paul were sitting about reading a number of old magazines. That was an unusual peaceful time in Gloucestershire. Actually it was that relaxing that the moment my mobile rang I leaped with surprise! The voice on the other end stated: "I've just ended my evening shift and incredibly filled petrol in the deep grey Chevrolet Caprice in error". I asked him to inform us where exactly he was situated and we set off, getting to him in Shipton not as much as half an hour later. The contaminated fuel was cleared from the car and he thanked us for coming so quickly. As we were returning to base we noticed two young ladies on the side of the highway who seemed to have a flat tyre. As a result we got out to change it, much to their elation.

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.
