It was close to five pm on a Saturday and while we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it had not given up on pouring! Ray and me were relaxing discussing the recent footy results, waiting around for the seventh job to come in. In due time we had a phone call from a woman on a company expedition who had arrived at the Esso petrol station in Clifton and filled petrol in a diesel old Volvo C70 rental car. She was rather distressed it seemed, telling me "I just can't believe I've messed up the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol car I completely did not remember I was driving a diesel!" We instructed her to calm down and not to be concerned, plus that these things often happen. She was able to maneuver the car into a secure space and, seeing as it was no more than a few miles away from where we were, we were able to get to the lady quickly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could once again go back to the hotel she was residing at.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be a serious condition to handle in an automobile - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel will likely cause idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both situations pretty swiftly.

Take note that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will likely be completely wet and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car in NE61 Postcode - Clifton Misfueling

What a great night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 on a sunny Wednesday and I was off to help an older lovely lady after she put petrol in her diesel luxury Skoda in Clifton. She informed us that she had left the petrol station forecourt and was broken down along a rural road on the way to visit her godchildren. I popped the location into the TomTom and was on-scene in less than 60 minutes. I got to the car and drained the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. As I was doing it she explained, "Now I'm becoming somewhat forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the car using diesel since I'd only just purchased it several days back because my old car, which I'd used for in excess of twenty years, finally gave up the ghost". I finished the job and she presented me a Murray mint and said thank you. What a lovely Northumberland woman!

Wrong Fuel Assist Clifton - Wrong Fuel in Car Clifton

I had appreciated a wonderful day cycling during my day off and was feeling pleased with myself the following working day as I set off to assist a young couple away in Clifton. They stopped after putting petrol into their beloved Hyundai Elantra, and were around an hour away. I emerged at their position and smiled while I listened to the gal telling her man off for being so confused. "Just how could you actually be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I attempted to tell her that this situation goes on everyday in Northumberland and that it is absolutely nothing to stress about, nevertheless he still got an ear bashing. Poor chap. Anyhow, I removed all of the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and filled them up with the right fuel. While watching them drive off I waved so long and considered what her indoors would do to me if ever I did the exact same thing... I'd under no circumstances live it down!

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.
