It was after 6 pm on a Monday and though we were assured a dry evening, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ryan and I were sitting there talking about the recent football results, waiting for the seventh telephone call to come in. Before long we got a call from a young lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling station in Buttonoak and put petrol in a diesel elegant Renault rental car in error. She was very troubled it seemed, telling me "I simply can't believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I completely forgot I was running a diesel!" We told her to relax and not to fret, and also that things like this unfortunately often happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a secure spot and, since it was only a few minutes off from the office, we were able to find her almost instantly. The bad fuel was extracted so she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was living at. Although we got very drenched, it was all rewarding seeing her drive home calm and a lot less apprehensive. One more misfuel correction in Shropshire done well in my opinion!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a serious matter to deal with in an automobile - particularly in current day common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol can cause idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with correctly, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both cases quite expediently.
Bear in mind that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel in Car in DY12 Postcode - Buttonoak Misfueling
Just had a fantastic night of sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a bright Tuesday and I was en route to assist an older lady after she had put contaminated fuel in her diesel boss' Volvo S70 in Buttonoak. She told us that she drove away from the filling station forecourt and was stranded along a rural lane en route to see her grandchildren. I popped her location straight into the Satnav and arrived in less than 60 minutes. I turned up at the location and removed the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. While I was doing the drain she said to me, "Now I'm becoming relatively absent-minded in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle needing diesel since I'd just got it a short while back right after my other one, which I had had for about 25 years, eventually stopped working". I got the job completed and she gave me a Murray mint and said thank you. What a delightful Shropshire woman!

A woman employed in Buttonoak contacted us after she managed to get her misfueled vehicle to her office. She had filled petrol in her diesel burgundy red Isuzu Amigo and, like countless prior to her, imagined that she could just fill up the tank with diesel and it'd be no problem. The engine was spluttering and then it died when she arrived at the entrance of her work. We promptly started on the fuel drain after she called and had it sorted inside one hour whilst she was in the office. She came outside soon after and thanked us stating, "I'm extremely pleased you repaired 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:
- 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.

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.
