It was about 7 pm on a Saturday and although we were guaranteed a dry night, it hadn't given up on raining! Ray and me were relaxing there talking over the football, waiting around for the next job to arrive. Finally we received a phone call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had gone to the Esso filling garage in Church Common and put petrol in her diesel navy blue Cadillac XLR lease car. The unfortunate lady was quite agitated it seemed, telling me "I still cannot believe I have wrecked the car! I'm so used to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I totally did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I instructed her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that these things regrettably happen. She was able to move the vehicle to a safe space and, seeing as it was just a few miles from the office, we could arrive at the lady fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to return to the Travelodge she was lodging in. Despite the fact we got very wet, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive off satisfied and a lot less concerned. One more job in Hampshire done well in my opinion!

They will deal with the standard problems which may go along with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to start, and even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious condition to take care of in a car - particularly in current day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel is likely to trigger idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both cases fairly swiftly.

Take note however that if the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will be completely wet and ineffective.

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.
