It was just after seven pm on a Thursday and although we were assured a rainless day, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and I were seated there going over the football results, prepared for the next job that day to come in. Eventually we received a call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had gone to the Texaco filling garage in Barrington and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel spotless Cadillac XLR-V rental. The unfortunate thing was somewhat agitated it seemed, saying "I cannot believe I have ruined the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I totally forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I just instructed her to relax and not to be concerned, plus that such things unfortunately often happen. She was able to get the vehicle to a secure space and, seeing as it was no more than a few miles from our van, we were able to get to her quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she could return to the Travelodge she was staying at. Despite the fact that we got pretty drenched, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away calm and much less worried. One more misfuel correction in Somerset well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


AdBlue Contamination

What you can do in the event that you’ve put AdBlue into your Diesel fuel tank?

AdBlue is a liquid made of a blend of high-purity urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). AdBlue is certainly devastating to your automobile's fuel system, especially in cases where you run the engine with AdBlue in your diesel tank. The moment the engine has been switched on the AdBlue will undoubtedly be squirted into the fuel lines and will immediately start to crystalise, resulting in serious and costly harm to your automobile's fuel system.

Any time you get in this situation don’t fret or panic! Contact us, the UK’s Best fuel contamination service. Our engineers have the technical competence and working experience to get you back on your way quickly and efficiently, no mess, no fuss.

Wrong Fuel Assist Barrington - Wrong Fuel in Car Barrington

I enjoyed a terrific evening golfing during my off day and was feeling delighted the next working day as I set out to aid a young couple who were on holiday in Barrington. They had pulled over after filling petrol in their green Nissan Murano, and were about half an hour's travel away. I arrived at their car and smiled to myself while I listened to the lady chastising her husband for being so stupid. "Exactly how could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I wanted to clarify that this situation comes to pass everyday in Somerset and that it's nothing at all to be concerned about, but he still had an earful by his wife. Poor guy. In any case, I drained out the polluted fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. Watching them drive away I shouted good-bye and wondered what her indoors would do to me in the event that I did the exact same thing... I would never hear the end of it!

Wrong Fuel in Car Somerset - Petrol in Diesel Car Barrington

Now I am certainly not so hot for carrying out work Sundays, and the other day was the same. I had just come away from the family following a magnificent Sunday roast prepared for me by the better half, and I was off to help a fellow who filled the incorrect petrol in his luxury Renault Laguna. He was situated in Barrington therefore it wasn't a long time before I arrived with him. As I pulled up at the rear of the vehicle and got out he said to me "Praise God! I foolishly had my attention on stuff and did not realise I'd put diesel in my petrol car. Have I created any kind of harm through running it?" I said truth be told there probably should not be any kind of problems and that I'd personally drain the fuel at once. Naturally I drained the contaminated fuel from the car and put in some suitable fuel, and another delighted motorist was able to carry on with their trip without any fuss. The guy could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and this tends to make working on Sundays in Somerset just that small bit better for me!

Wrong Fuel Doctor Barrington - Fuel Rescue Barrington

A driver from Barrington with a full car of children in her diesel modified Range Rover Sport had filled her vehicle with £20 of petrol at the Tesco filling station. She called us weeping and really distraught as she had never put petrol in a diesel car before and did not know what could happen to her vehicle . We reassured her that the car should be fine and that she would be ready to go soon. When we arrived on scene she was still upset but as our fuel drainer started work on the fuel drain she calmed down because she discovered that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't unfixable. She soon enough brightened up and was up and running saying, "I just can't believe my luck putting petrol in my diesel car! Particularly with the kids in the back."

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.
