It was close to seven pm on a Thursday and though we were assured a dry and fresh day, it had not given up on pouring! Dan and me were resting there talking about the weekend's football results, waiting for the sixth telephone call that day to come in. Inevitably we got the phone call from a lady on a company expedition who had arrived at the Shell petrol garage in Pamber Green and filled petrol in her diesel cobalt blue Austin Mini Cooper S rental car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was rather agitated it seemed, stating "I can't believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I completely forgot that I was using a diesel!" I asked her to settle back and not to worry, and also that these things unfortunately often happen. She had managed to get the vehicle into a secure space and, since it was only a few miles away from the office, we could reach the customer almost instantly.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close to parking bay we can access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases an important condition to address in a car - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel can lead to idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both circumstances very swiftly.

You should know however that if the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will probably be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel in Car in RG26 Postcode - Pamber Green Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a great night of sleep! 7:30 am on a gloomy Monday and we were off to help an elder woman who put the wrong fuel in her diesel blue Jaguar in Pamber Green. I'd been told she had left the filling station and was broken down on a backwater road en route to pay a visit to her family. I punched the location straight into the Satnav and got there in less than 60 minutes. I got to the location and removed the wrong fuel from the car. While I was doing the drain she said, "I am becoming fairly forgetful in my old age and forgot about the vehicle using diesel as I'd only got it a week ago after my previous one, which I had for more than thirty years, inevitably died". I got the job completed and she presented me a peppermint and said thank you. What a delightful Hampshire lady!

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.

• 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.
