The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant matter to take care of in an automobile - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol will often contribute to idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. However we can solve both situations quite simply.

Remember though that any time the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will probably be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel container placed in the back of your garden with out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and industrial premises in Lancashire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even several containers in a storage shed, provided that we are able to get to it, we can drain it for you.

A customer had conked out on a road, Tarlscough just after having put petrol in her diesel car. She was weeping and truly troubled as she had put £40 petrol in her diesel car.

By the time we arrived with her she was no longer aggrieved and was rather intrigued in observing our fuel drainer perform the fuel drain on her customised Vauxhall Astra. Soon after she said: "My car is like my child, I recently purchased it and thus it honestly freaked me out that I had put such a lot of wrong fuel in it. I'm pleased that it was so very easily fixable."

I enjoyed a terrific evening hiking during my afternoon off and was feeling cheerful with myself the next morning as I headed out to aid a young family away in Tarlscough. They'd broken down after adding the wrong fuel into their baby blue Hyundai Excel, and they were roughly an hour's travel away. I showed up at their position and laughed as I listened to the girl telling off her man for being so confused. "How could you actually be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I tried to clarify that this situation occurs everyday in Lancashire and that it's absolutely nothing to fret about, even so he yet still got an earful. Unlucky lad. At any rate, I extracted all of the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave them some appropriate fuel. Watching as they drove down the road I shouted farewell and thought about what my wife would do to me if I did the same thing... I'd personally never ever hear the end of it!

Wrong Fuel in Car Lancashire - Petrol in Diesel Car Tarlscough

Now I am certainly not too enthusiastic about running on weekends, and a week ago was the same. I'd just departed the wife and kids following a lovely Sunday roast cooked for us by the better half, and I was on the way to help a gentleman who had filled the wrong fuel in his green Peugeot Bipper. He was somewhere in Tarlscough so I arrived on scene quickly. As I arrived right behind the car and got busy draining he told me "Thank God! I stupidly had my mind on stuff and did not grasp that I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Have I brought on any kind of problems simply by running it?" I revealed that truth be told there probably should not be any kind of harm and that also I would drain the contaminated fuel as soon as possible for him. It goes without saying that I drained the wrong fuel from the vehicle and filled up with the appropriate fuel, and so yet another satisfied client could continue his traveling without any difficulty. He could not stop saying thanks to me, and this can make operating on Sundays in Lancashire that little bit easier for me personally!

This was what is called an unsociable time to be on the road. It was roughly sunrise and hardly anyone was stirring. It had become fairly uneventful thus far, and Paul and I were loafing looking at several old papers. It was an uncommon restful hour in Lancashire. It was so quiet that the instant my mobile eventually rang I leaped with surprise! The motorist told me: "I've only just ended my overnight shift and foolishly filled the wrong fuel in a metallic blue Mercedes-Benz S-Class". I asked him to tell us exactly where he was situated and we hit the road, reaching him in Tarlscough no more than an hour later. The fuel was cleaned up and removed from the vehicle. He said thank you for arriving so quickly. While we were going back to base we saw two young ladies on the side of the road who seemed to have a puncture. Accordingly we pulled up and helped them 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 VA 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.
