It was around 9 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry evening, it hadn't ceased raining!

Finally we received the phone call from a lady on a business excursion who had gone to the Texaco petrol station in Lenton Abbey and put petrol in a diesel red Audi A3 rental car in error. The poor lady was very distressed by the sounds of it, stating "I just can't believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I completely forgot that I was running a diesel!" I just told her to calm down and not to fret, and that these things often happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a safe spot and, because it was just a few minutes from our van, we were able to get to the woman fairly quickly.

We can get out to refill the car in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) and refill the car. They are also able to deal with any of the common problems that might go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not starting, and even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious matter to take care of in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel may well bring about idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied correctly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both circumstances fairly quickly.

Bear in mind that if ever the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will be completely wet and ineffective.

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 VAT 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.
