It was close to six pm on a Saturday and while we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it hadn't ceased raining! James and I were relaxing there talking about the weekend's golf rankings, ready for the next job of the day to come in. In due time we had a call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had arrived at the BP filling station in Tring Wharf and put the wrong fuel in her diesel beloved VW Eurovan rental car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was rather irritated by the sounds of it, stating "I simply cannot believe I've ruined the car! I'm so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car I completely didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" We advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that these things unfortunately do happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle into a safe area and, seeing as it was only a short distance off from the office, we could find the woman swiftly.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, can be an important condition to take care of in an automobile - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in fuel is likely to lead to idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both situations quite expediently.

Remember that if the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will be completely wet and useless.

What a good night of sleep! It was 7:00 am on a bright Saturday and we were en route to help an elder lovely lady who put petrol in her diesel bright white BMW 8 Series in Tring Wharf.

I turned up at the stricken lady and extracted the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. Whilst I was doing the work she said to me, "Now I'm becoming fairly absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the vehicle taking diesel because I'd only just got it a couple of days ago because my other car, which I had used for more than 25 years, finally died on me".

Wrong Fuel Assist Tring Wharf - Wrong Fuel in Car Tring Wharf

I had a great day hiking during the weekend and was feeling contented the following day as I headed out to help a young couple who were on vacation in Tring Wharf. They pulled over after filling the wrong fuel in their creamy white Renault Kangoo, and the car was close to an hour's travel away. I got there at their location and smiled while I heard to the lady berating her spouse for actually being so silly. "Precisely how could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I tried to explain that this problem comes to pass continuously in Hertfordshire and that it's truly nothing to be concerned about, and yet he all the same got his ear bent by his missus. I felt sorry for the guy. At any rate, I removed the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave it some correct fuel. While watching them drive down the road I waved hasta la vista and pondered on what my missus would tell me if ever I made the very same blunder... I'd under no circumstances hear the end of it!

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.
