It was close to 9 pm on a Wednesday and although we were promised a dry day, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Ryan and I were relaxing there talking about the golf, waiting around for the seventh call for the day to arrive. Eventually we received the phone call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had arrived at the Tesco petrol garage in Chedworth Laines and put petrol in her diesel burgundy red Audi RS6 rental car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was pretty affected by the sounds of it, stating "I just can't believe that I have messed up the car! I am just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car I totally forgot I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to worry, and also that these things happen. She had managed to get the vehicle to a protected spot and, as it was no more than a short distance from our van, we were able to get to the customer without delay. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could return to the hotel she was staying at. Despite the fact that we got fairly wet, it was all worth it to watch her drive off relaxed and a lot less worried. One more misfuel correction in Gloucestershire well done in my opinion!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually an important condition to handle in a vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel may well cause idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not addressed correctly, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both cases very easily.

You should know however that whenever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Assuming that the boat is either on land, or parked close enough to a car or truck parking spot we are able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.

Wrong Fuel Assist Chedworth Laines - Wrong Fuel in Car Chedworth Laines

I'd had a fantastic evening cycling during my day off and felt pleased the next working day as I set off to aid a new family who were away in Chedworth Laines. They had pulled over after adding the wrong fuel in their daughter's Chevrolet Silverado, and they were around half an hour's drive away. I showed up at their car and smiled to myself while I listened to the wife berating her hubby for being so confused. "Just how could you actually be able to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I wanted to explain that this problem goes on constantly in Gloucestershire and that it's really nothing to stress about, even so he in spite of everything got his ear bent by his better half. I felt genuine sympathy for the boy. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed all of the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some correct fuel. While they drove away I shouted good-bye and pondered on what my missus would ask me in the event that I did the exact same thing... I would never ever hear the end of it!

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.
