It was after ten pm on a Thursday and while we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and me were seated talking over the recent sports, waiting for the next telephone call to come in. Finally we received the phone call from a lovely women on a business trip who had gone to the Tesco petrol garage in Shobdon and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel red VW GLI rental. She was fairly affected it seemed, telling me "I can not believe that I have destroyed the car! I am just so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I just instructed her to calm down and not to worry, plus that things like this regrettably do happen. She was able to maneuver the car to a protected position and, because it was no more than a few miles from us, we were able to arrive at the lady without delay. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to return to the motel she was living at. Despite the fact we got really drenched, it was all worth it to see her drive home calm and not so anxious. Another misfuel correction in Herefordshire well done in my opinion!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious situation to address in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your fuel tank can potentially bring about idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both situations very expediently.

Bear in mind though that whenever the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will probably be totally water-logged and useless.

Wrong Fuel in Car in HR6 Postcode - Shobdon Misfueling

What a fantastic night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 am on a sunny Saturday and I was on my way to assist an old sweetheart who put petrol in her diesel apricot Jeep Grand Cherokee in Shobdon. I had been advised she had driven away from the petrol station and was pulled up in a rural road on route to see her family. I punched her location in the Satnav and got there in less than an hour or so. I turned up at the vehicle and extracted the wrong fuel from the vehicle. As I was doing the drain she explained, "I am becoming fairly forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle working with diesel as I'd only bought it a short while back because my previous one, which I'd used for in excess of thirty years, eventually died on me". I got the job done and she gifted me a Murray mint and said thanks a lot. Such a pleasant Herefordshire 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.

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.
