It was just before eight pm on a Saturday and although we were guaranteed a dry night, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and I were seated talking about the weekend's golf, waiting around for the 8th job for the day to arrive. Before long we got the call from a lady on a business excursion who had arrived at the Tesco petrol garage in Highridge and filled petrol in a diesel mustard yellow Peugeot 306 rental. The unfortunate thing was quite agitated apparently, telling me "I simply cannot believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" We told her to take it easy and not to be concerned, plus that things like this sadly happen. She was able to move the car to a protected space and, since it was only a short distance away from the office, we were able to reach the customer without delay. The wrong fuel was extracted and she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Despite the fact we got extremely soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive away calm and a lot less concerned. Another job in Somerset done well in my opinion!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be an important issue to deal with in an automobile - especially in modern-day common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel may cause idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed correctly, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both cases fairly quickly.
Bear in mind that in the event that the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will be totally water-logged and useless.

We've been called out to a number of privately owned and business premises in Somerset for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages.

Wrong Fuel in Car in BS13 Postcode - Highridge Misfueling
The owner of a matte black Volkswagen Touareg 2 was regretful that he put petrol in his diesel automobile when he got onto the road and it spluttered and stopped. "I've gone and put petrol in my diesel car," is what he informed us the very first time he rang. In truth, when he first called us he said he would like to comparison shop, but he called us back soon enough because our rate and arrival times were the best. Needless to say, our technician had him back performing his deliveries within the time period we'd quoted.

It can't be fun being stuck in a vehicle full of the improper fuel in the middle of the road. Our last customer who filled her diesel car with petrol (green BMW 650) in Highridge endured literally this difficulty: "Obviously I incorrectly put unleaded in my diesel car a few days ago. I was so troubled about my error that I was actually in tears. Nevertheless I shouldn't have concerned myself because you were exceptional in draining and cleaning my car."
Wrong Fuel Doctor Highridge - Fuel Rescue Highridge
It truly was what is called the graveyard shift. It was around dawn and hardly anyone was stirring. It had been quite uneventful thus far, and me and Paul were relaxing perusing some old magazines. It was an uncommon restful hour in Somerset. Actually it was that peaceful that when the phone rang it made me jump! The person on the opposite end explained: "I just concluded my night shift and foolishly poured the wrong fuel in my diesel dark blue Cadillac Seville by mistake". I got him to tell us exactly where the car was and we hit the road, ending up in Highridge no more than an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was extracted from the vehicle and he said thanks a lot for coming out so promptly. While we were coming back to the depot we noticed two young ladies on the edge of the road who seemed to have a flat tyre. As a result we pulled up and helped them change it, much to their elation.

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.
