It was just before seven pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless day, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were resting there commenting on the weekend's footy, at the ready for the sixth call of the day to come in. Eventually we had the phone call from a woman on a company expedition who had arrived at the BP filling garage in Peckham and put petrol in a diesel trusty BMW X3 lease car by mistake. She was very irritated it seemed, stating "I can not believe that I've wrecked the car! I am just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car I had did not remember that I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to relax and not to worry, and that things like this unfortunately happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a protected position and, since it was no more than a short distance away from where we were, we were able to get to the customer rather quickly. The bad fuel was extracted so she was able to return to the hotel she was residing at. Despite the fact we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive home calm and much less worried. A job in Camden done well in my mind!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually a serious condition to deal with in an automobile - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your fuel can potentially result in idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not addressed fully, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both situations fairly simply.

Keep in mind that if the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Peckham (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a full Camden Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to re-fill the car in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump prices) and refill your automobile. They will be able to deal with the normal troubles that could come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

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.
