It was around 9 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless evening, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Ryan and me were relaxing discussing the recent rugby, ready for the 8th telephone call that day to come in. Finally we got the call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had arrived at the Shell petrol station in Crockerhill and put petrol in her diesel well worn Citron DS4 hire car. She was quite irritated apparently, crying "I simply cannot believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I just told her to calm down and not to fret, also that such things sadly can happen. She was able to get the car to a safe spot and, seeing that it was just a few miles from our van, we were able to arrive at the customer fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was staying at. Although we got thoroughly soaked, it was all rewarding to watch her drive home calm and not so apprehensive. Another fuel drain in Hampshire well done in my mind!

Out of Fuel Assistance
Out of fuel in Crockerhill (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a comprehensive Hampshire Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to refill your automobile any time you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump prices) and fill your vehicle. They are also able to fix any of the typical problems that may come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.
Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually a serious condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel is likely to lead to idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed fully, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both cases rather simply.
You should know that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will probably be totally water-logged and useless.

A customer had stopped on a street, Crockerhill just after having put the wrong fuel in her car. She was weeping and truly agitated as she had put £60 of petrol in her diesel car. When she contacted us we made an effort to sooth her as well as we could, telling her that all would be ok.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Crockerhill
I am not that enthusiastic about doing work weekends, and a couple weeks ago was no different. I had only just left the family following a wonderful roast prepared for me by the better half, and I was on the way to sort out a man because he put the incorrect petrol in his dark blue Isuzu Amigo. He was situated in Crockerhill and so I arrived on scene rapidly. Just as I arrived at the car and started work he told me "Thank God! I foolishly had my attention on other considerations and didn't realise I've put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I created some damage by driving it?" I explained that generally there shouldn't be problems and also that I'd get the contaminated fuel drained at once for him. As expected I got the contaminated fuel drained from the vehicle and put in the appropriate fuel, and yet another content client was able to continue his traveling without the need for bother. He couldn't stop thanking me, and this is exactly what helps make earning a living on weekends in Hampshire just that tiny bit less painful in my opinion!

A customer who had put unleaded in his diesel white Mazda B-Series called us for help at the Shell petrol filling station in Crockerhill.

"I put petrol instead of diesel and it wasn't a wonderful start to our getaway." It was really no hassle in the least for our technical engineer to go out and carry out the fuel drain. We hope the family enjoyed their holiday.

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:

- 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 VAT 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.
