It was around 7 pm on a Thursday and though we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ryan and me were resting there commenting on the weekend's footy, at the ready for the next telephone call that day to come in. Inevitably we got the call from a woman on a company trip who had pulled into the BP petrol station in Callow Hill and filled petrol in a diesel clean white Peugeot 505 rental. She was somewhat agitated by the sounds of it, saying "I just can't believe that I've ruined the car! I'm so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember I was using a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to fret, also that things like this regrettably do happen. She had managed to relocate the car into a secure space and, since it was just a few miles off from our van, we were able to get to the customer without delay. The incorrect fuel was removed and she could go home to the Premier Inn she was lodging in.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a serious matter to deal with in an automobile - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the fuel tank will result in idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both cases rather quickly.

You should know however that in the event that the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and useless.

Wrong Fuel in Car in BA5 Postcode - Callow Hill Misfueling

Just had a quality night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a bright Monday and I was on my way to assist an old sweetheart who put contaminated fuel in her diesel cobalt blue Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 3500 in Callow Hill. I had been informed she drove away from the filling station forecourt and stranded along a backwater lane on route to pay a visit to her family. I got her location punched in the Satnav and got there in less than 60 minutes. I reached the vehicle and removed the wrong fuel in the car car. Whilst I was doing the work she said to me, "I have been becoming rather absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the car working with diesel as I'd only just bought it a few days ago right after my previous one, which I used for about 25 years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I got the job done and she offered me a peppermint and said thanks. What a pleasant 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.

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.
