It was around seven pm on a Thursday and while we were guaranteed a rainless day, it had not stopped raining! Ryan and I were resting commenting on the recent rugby rankings, at the ready for the seventh job for the day to arrive. Finally we had a phone call from a young lady on a business trip who had gone to the Shell filling station in Littleton Common and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel deep grey Land Rover Defender 110 rental car by mistake. The poor thing was rather irritated it seemed, telling me "I simply cannot believe I've messed up the vehicle! I am so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I advised her to relax and not to worry, also that such things do happen. She had managed to relocate the car to a safe position and, seeing as it was no more than a few miles away from the office, we were able to get to the customer quickly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was living in. Despite the fact we got pretty wet, it was all worth the time to watch her drive off contented and not so anxious. Yet another misfuel correction in Surrey well done in my books!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is certainly a significant situation to take care of in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol can certainly result in idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both situations rather simply.
Remember however that if ever the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will probably be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Littleton Common
I'm certainly not excessively inclined to carrying out work weekends, and a couple weeks ago was the same. I had only just left the wife and kids following a superb roast made by the missus, and I was en route to help a guy who put the wrong petrol in his metallic yellow VW Fox. He was stationed in Littleton Common so I was with him almost immediately. Just as I drove up behind the car and started work he explained to me "Praise the Almighty! I stupidly had my attention on other things and did not realise I had put diesel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I created any damage by starting it?" I stated there shouldn't be any kind of problems and that also I'd get the fuel drained right away for him. Naturally I got the wrong fuel drained from the car and put in some suitable fuel, and another pleased customer had the ability to carry on with his traveling without any hassle. He couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and that is what makes working on weekends in Surrey just a tiny bit easier in my opinion!
Wrong Fuel Doctor Littleton Common - Fuel Rescue Littleton Common
A customer from Littleton Common with her kids in her diesel dirty red Daewoo Leganza had filled her vehicle with £30 of petrol at the Co Op petrol station. She called us sobbing and genuinely distraught as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel and did not know what might happen to her vehicle in doing so. We reassured her that everything would be alright and that she would be back up and running very quickly. When we arrived on scene she was still distressed but as our engineer got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down as she saw that help was at hand and her car wasn't unfixable. She soon brightened up and was up and running saying, "I really can't believe my bad luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Specifically 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.
