Petrol in the diesel car or bike in Bermondsey? Thanks for visiting Wrong Fuel SoS. Phone us and find out just how we are able to help to get you up and running once again.
It was about 7 pm on a Saturday and while we were assured a dry day, it hadn't given up on raining! James and I were relaxing there talking over the weekend's golf results, at the ready for the next call to come in. Inevitably we received a call from a lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol station in Bermondsey and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel dark red Volkswagen Beetle lease car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was pretty troubled by the sounds of it, crying "I simply cannot believe I've messed up the vehicle! I'm so used to filling my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to fret, also that things like this regrettably often happen. She had managed to get the vehicle into a safe area and, because it was just a few miles from us, we were able to get to the woman quickly. The bad fuel was drained so she could once again go back to the motel she was residing in. Even though we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth it to watch her drive off calm and a lot less anxious. A fuel drain in Southwark well done in my mind!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a serious condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines.
Having water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel can certainly cause idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both situations very quickly.
You should know that any time the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.
Waste Fuel Disposal
Got a fuel reservoir lying in the rear of your premises containing old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to several privately owned and commercial premises in Southwark to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.
Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a mobile bowser, or perhaps some containers in an outbuilding, provided that we are able to access it, we could certainly empty it.

Wrong Fuel Assist Bermondsey - Wrong Fuel in Car Bermondsey
I appreciated a great day golfing during my off day and felt satisfied with myself the following morning as I set out to aid a young couple who were on holiday in Bermondsey. They had conked out after inserting diesel into their old Lexus, and they were about an hour away. I arrived at their position and smiled to myself while I heard to the woman telling off her husband for actually being so stupid. "Precisely how could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I tried to tell her that this situation takes place constantly in Southwark and that it is absolutely nothing to be concerned about, but he still got his ear bent. I felt genuine sympathy for the boy. Anyhow, I removed all the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the correct fuel. While they drove down the road I waved bon voyage and thought about what my missus would do to me in the event that I did the very same thing... I would personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Bermondsey
I'm not very hot for working on Sundays, and last week was no different. I had just departed the wife and kids after a superb Sunday roast prepared for me by the better half, and I was on my way to deal with a fellow because he put the incorrect petrol in his luxury Saab 9-5. He was stationed in Bermondsey so it wouldn't be a long time before I arrived with him. Just as I arrived right behind the car and got out he told me "Praise God! I had my thoughts on something else and didn't realise I have put diesel in my petrol car. Is it possible I brought on any problems by starting it?" I revealed that truth be told there shouldn't be any harm and that also I'd personally drain the contaminated fuel at once for him. Obviously I drained the wrong fuel from the vehicle and put in the suitable fuel, and thus yet another happy client could carry on with his traveling without any subsequent difficulty. He could not stop thanking me, and that is actually what tends to make earning a living on Sundays in Southwark just a tiny bit easier for me personally!
Wrong Fuel Doctor Bermondsey - Fuel Rescue Bermondsey
A young lady from Bermondsey with a full car of little ones in her diesel dirty red Honda Ridgeline had put £45 of petrol at the Tesco filling station. She contacted us weeping and genuinely upset as she had never wrong fueled before and didn't know what would happen to her car because of it. We told her that the car should be okay and that she would be back on the road soon. When we arrived she was still upset but as our fuel drainer began work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she recognised that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't unfixable. She soon cheered up and was on her way saying, "I really can't believe my bad luck putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Particularly with the kids on board."

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:
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
