It was before ten pm on a Friday and though we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and I were seated there discussing the footy, at the ready for the 8th job for the day to arrive. Before long we had a phone call from a lady on a business excursion who had pulled into the Shell filling station in Lushcott and put the wrong fuel in her diesel black Alfa Romeo164 rental car. She was quite troubled apparently, saying "I simply cannot believe I've ruined the car! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I totally did not remember I was running a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to worry, and that such things often happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle into a safe space and, because it was just a few miles away from our van, we could get to the woman right away. The contaminated fuel was drained and she was able to get back to the hotel she was living in. Even though we got very drenched, it was all worth the time to see her drive away contented and much less concerned. Yet another misfuel correction in Shropshire done well in my mind!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually a significant matter to address in a car - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your fuel can potentially produce idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both situations fairly swiftly.

Keep in mind though that as long as the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will likely be completely wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a car parking bay we can access the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.

Just had a good night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 on a warm Saturday and I was on the way to help an old sweetheart after she had put petrol in her diesel cobalt blue Chrysler Grand Voyager in Lushcott. She told us that she had left the filling station forecourt and pulled up in a rural lane along the way to visit her grandchildren. I got her location plugged straight into the Satnav and was with her in less than 60 minutes. I arrived at the vehicle and drained the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. Whilst I was working she said to me, "I'm getting somewhat forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle taking diesel because I had only purchased it a week ago because my other one, which I owned for about 30 years, inevitably died on me". I got the drain completed and she presented me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. Such a lovely Shropshire lady!

Wrong Fuel Assist Lushcott - Wrong Fuel in Car Lushcott

I appreciated a perfect day hiking during my holiday and felt delighted with myself the next working day as I set out to help a new family holidaying in Lushcott. They broken down after filling diesel into their compact Fiat Bravo, and were around half an hour's drive away. I turned up at their car and smiled as I listened to the wife chastising her hubby for actually being so stupid. "How could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I attempted to clarify that this takes place continuously in Shropshire and that it is nothing to worry about, but he yet still got his ear bent. Poor lad. Anyways, I drained out the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and gave it some appropriate fuel. While watching them drive away I shouted farewell and pondered on what my missus would tell me if I made the exact same blunder... I'd personally under no circumstances live it down!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Lushcott

We a few weeks ago received a phone call about a young man who put the wrong fuel in his dark blue Mitsubishi Montero in Lushcott. He had come to a stand-still on the road. "After putting petrol in my diesel car I didn't notice the problem up until the time it broke down. You removed the wrong fuel from my car and got it functioning again. I was pleased as a result of both your speed and your price". Needless to say we were on-scene promptly and purged the engine after draining the petrol from the diesel tank. On arrival our technician said the customer was raging, but was happy after the fuel drain.

A woman working in Lushcott called us after she had managed to get her misfueled automobile to work. She had put unleaded in her diesel bright yellow Volvo V90 and, like many people before her, assumed that she could simply fill up the car with diesel and it would run fine. The engine was coughing and then it cut out when she reached the entrance of her work. We soon started on the fuel drain following her call and got it sorted in 60 minutes whilst she was at work. She came outside later on and thanked us saying, "I'm extremely pleased you sorted my vehicle."

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.
