It was around six pm on a Friday and though we were guaranteed a dry night, it had not given up on raining! Ryan and I were resting going over the weekend's sports, waiting for the sixth fuel drain of the day to come in. Finally we got the call from a girl on a business trip who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol garage in Edgarley and put petrol in her diesel trusty Honda Ridgeline lease car. She was quite distressed it seemed, saying "I can't believe I have messed up the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol car that I totally did not remember I was using a diesel!" I just asked her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that things like this unfortunately happen. She was able to get the car to a safe position and, since it was no more than a few minutes off from us, we were able to arrive at the lady rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was taken out so she was able to go home to the motel she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got extremely soaked, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive away relaxed and much less apprehensive. One more fuel drain in Somerset done well in my books!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a serious issue to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel can potentially contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both cases fairly easily.

You should know though that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will likely be totally wet and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel Assist Edgarley - Wrong Fuel in Car Edgarley

I had enjoyed a fantastic afternoon golfing during the weekend and felt delighted with myself the next working day as I was en route to help a young family vacationing in Edgarley. They had broken down after putting diesel into their sunflower yellow Mercedes-Benz CL-Class, and they were around an hour's drive away. I emerged at their car and laughed to myself as I heard to the gal berating her spouse for being so silly. "Precisely how could you actually find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I attempted to explain that this kind of thing comes to pass quite frequently in Somerset and that it is nothing at all to get worried about, however he in spite of everything had an earful by his better half. Unfortunate boy. Anyways, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave it some correct fuel. While watching them drive down the road I shouted bon voyage and wondered what my wife would do to me if perhaps I made the exact same mistake... I would never live it down!

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.
