It was after seven pm on a Tuesday and even though we were assured a dry evening, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! James and I were seated discussing the tennis rankings, waiting around for the 8th call for the day to arrive. Inevitably we got the call from a girl on a company trip who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol station in Coppleham and put petrol in a diesel raspberry red Peugeot 207 rental car in error. She was rather affected by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply cannot believe that I have wrecked the car! I am so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car I totally forgot that I was using a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that such things often happen. She was able to get the vehicle into a safe space and, since it was no more than a short distance off from our van, we could get to her quickly. The bad fuel was taken out so she was able to go home to the hotel she was lodging in. Despite the fact we got extremely drenched, it was all worth the time seeing her drive away contented and less concerned. Another misfuel correction in Somerset done well in my books!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a significant matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel is likely to contribute to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both situations pretty quickly.
Take note though that as long as the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one is going to be totally wet and useless.

Just had a great night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a gloomy Saturday and we were off to assist an older lovely lady who put the wrong fuel in her diesel silver Citron DS5 in Coppleham. I had been informed she had left the filling station forecourt and was pulled up along a rural lane along the way to see her family. I got her location plugged in the Satnav and was with her inside an hour or so. I reached the location and drained the wrong fuel in the car vehicle.

Wrong Fuel in Car Somerset - Petrol in Diesel Car Coppleham
I am not ever too enthusiastic about doing work Sundays, and a while back was no different. I had just come away from the family after a lovely roast prepared for me by the missus, and I was on the way to assist a gentleman who put the incorrect petrol in his boss' Ford Fiesta. He was situated in Coppleham and so it wouldn't be long before I arrived with him. As I arrived behind the vehicle and got busy draining he explained to me "Thank God! I incredibly had my mind on something else and didn't ascertain I've put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Have I caused any problems by starting it?" I revealed there shouldn't be any kind of problems and that I'd personally remove the contaminated fuel as quickly as possible for him. It goes without saying that I got the fuel drained from the car and filled up with the suitable fuel, and then another content customer could carry on with their trip without any subsequent bother. The guy could hardly stop thanking me, and this makes working on Sundays in Somerset just that little bit better for me personally!

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.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
