It was just after seven pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Brian and I were sitting commenting on the tennis results, waiting for the 8th fuel drain to come in. Eventually we had the phone call from a lovely women on a company trip who had pulled into the Esso petrol station in Falcon and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel shiny Land Rover Range Rover Evoque rental by mistake. The unfortunate lady was pretty distressed by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply can't believe I've wrecked the car! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot I was running a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to worry, plus that things like this unfortunately happen. She managed to move the car to a safe position and, seeing that it was only a few minutes from where we were, we were able to get to the lady rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was staying at.

The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!

Out of fuel in Falcon (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a full Herefordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily come to fill up your automobile in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill up your vehicle. They will be able to fix the usual troubles that can go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question an important issue to handle in a car - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel tank can easily bring about idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both cases rather expediently.

Keep in mind however that as long as the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will undoubtedly be totally wet and useless.

Wrong Fuel Assist Falcon - Wrong Fuel in Car Falcon

I appreciated a terrific afternoon cycling during the weekend and was feeling cheerful with myself the next morning as I headed out to aid a young family who were away in Falcon. They'd stopped after adding diesel into their mint green Land Rover Discovery Series II, and they were roughly an hour's travel away. I arrived at their position and laughed to myself as I listened to the woman telling off her spouse for turning out to be so silly. "How could you even be able to fill the car up with the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I attempted to explain that this takes place everyday in Herefordshire and that it is absolutely nothing to worry about, and yet he still had an earful by his better half. Poor guy. Anyhow, I removed the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and gave it some right fuel. While watching them drive away I waved bon voyage and considered what my missus would ask me if perhaps I did the very same thing... I'd personally never hear the end of it!

It truly was what is called an unsociable hour to be awake. It was around sunrise and nobody was about. It had been rather uneventful so far, and John and I were sitting around reading a few old articles. That was a rare restful moment in Herefordshire. Actually it was indeed so tranquil that when the phone finally rang I jumped! The customer told me: "I've completed my overnight shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in a diesel blue Volkswagen Scirocco in error". We told him to tell us where he was located and we left, reaching him in Falcon under 30 minutes later. The fuel was cleaned from the vehicle. He thanked us profusely for showing up so promptly. While we were going back to base we found two girls on the side of the street who looked like they had a flat tyre. So we pulled over to change it, much to their delight.

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.
