It was before ten pm on a Friday and even though we were assured a rainless day, it hadn't stopped raining! James and I were resting talking over the recent tennis rankings, waiting around for the seventh call to come in. Before long we received the phone call from a young lady on a company trip who had gone to the BP petrol garage in Havyatt and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel mum's VW Touareg 2 lease car. She was quite affected by the sounds of it, crying "I cannot believe I have messed up the car! I am so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car I totally didn't remember I was running a diesel!" I just told her to relax and not to fret, and that things like this sadly happen. She was able to get the vehicle into a protected spot and, because it was no more than a short distance away from where we were, we could arrive at her swiftly. The wrong fuel was extracted and she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Even though we got really drenched, it was all rewarding to see her drive off satisfied and less concerned. Yet another job in Somerset well done in my opinion!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases an important matter to handle in a car - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank will often cause idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain than water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both situations pretty quickly.

Be aware however that in the event that the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will probably be totally water-logged and useless.

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel reservoir placed at the rear of your garden containing old, useless or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to several private and industrial properties in Somerset to take care of draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

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.
