It was after 5 pm on a Wednesday and while we were promised a dry and fresh night, it had not stopped raining! Mark and me were sitting going over the recent golf results, waiting around for the 8th telephone call of the day to arrive. Before long we had the phone call from a lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the Tesco petrol station in Browns End and put the wrong fuel in a diesel wife's Vauxhall Combo hire car. She was fairly troubled it seemed, telling me "I can't believe I've destroyed the car! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot that I was using a diesel!" I told her to take it easy and not to worry, plus that things like this sadly can happen. She managed to relocate the car to a safe position and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes away from where we were, we could find the customer swiftly.

Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Browns End (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a complete Gloucestershire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill your car if you are stranded on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) to fill your car or truck. They will be able to fix any of the normal problems that can go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant matter to address in a vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel can produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both circumstances pretty swiftly.

You should know that any time the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will probably be totally water-logged and useless.

Wrong Fuel Assist Browns End - Wrong Fuel in Car Browns End

I enjoyed a wonderful afternoon hiking on my afternoon off and felt pleased the following working day as I set off to help a young family who were holidaying in Browns End. They'd stopped after inserting the wrong fuel in their shiny Volvo S60, and they were close to half an hour's drive away. I got there at their location and laughed while I listened to the gal berating her hubby for being so confused. "Exactly how could you even be able to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I attempted to clarify that this goes on constantly in Gloucestershire and that it's truly nothing to be anxious about, but he still had an ear bashing. Unfortunate guy. At any rate, I extracted all the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled it up with the correct fuel. While they drove off I waved so long and considered what my wife would ask me if perhaps I made the very same blunder... I would never live it down!

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.
