It was about 9 pm on a Tuesday and though we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ray and me were seated there talking over the recent footy results, ready for the next job that day to come in. Eventually we got a call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had gone to the BP filling station in Upper Canada and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel compact Volkswagen Touareg 2 rental. The poor thing was rather affected it seemed, saying "I cannot believe I've ruined the car! I'm just so familiar with filling my petrol car I had forgot that I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to relax and not to worry, plus that these things unfortunately can happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle into a safe space and, seeing that it was only a few miles from our van, we were able to find the woman without delay. The wrong fuel was drained so she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Despite the fact we got fairly wet, it was all worth it to see her drive away calm and much less anxious. One more job in Somerset done well in my opinion!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant condition to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your fuel can easily trigger idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both cases very quickly.

Remember though that if ever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will be totally wet and unusable.

Ahhh, that was a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 am on a warm Sunday and we were en route to help an older sweetheart who put petrol in her diesel cream MINI Cooper Countryman in Upper Canada. I'd been advised she had left the petrol station forecourt and was stranded along a rural road on the way to pay a visit to her family. I punched the location straight into the TomTom and got there within an hour. I arrived at the stricken lady and extracted the wrong fuel from the vehicle. As I was doing it she said, "I have been getting fairly absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the car working with diesel since I'd only got it a few days back after my other car, which I had owned for more than 25 years, eventually broke down". I finished the drain and she offered me a toffee and thanked me for my work. What a delightful Somerset lady!

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.

• 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.
