It was after five pm on a Tuesday and while we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it had not stopped raining! James and me were resting talking over the sports results, at the ready for the sixth job of the day to come in. Before long we got a phone call from a lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Tesco filling garage in Upper Coxley and filled petrol in her diesel sunflower yellow Cadillac CTS-V hire car. The unfortunate lady was somewhat affected it seemed, crying "I simply can't believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol car that I had forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I just asked her to relax and not to fret, plus that things like this unfortunately can happen. She had managed to relocate the car into a secure position and, as it was only a short distance off from our van, we were able to reach the lady swiftly. The bad fuel was drained and she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Even though we got really soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive home satisfied and much less stressed. Yet another misfuel correction in Somerset well done in my mind!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel will trigger idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both cases quite quickly.

Bear in mind that if the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you remove it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a vehicle parking spot we can access the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out many fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.

What a good night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a sunny Saturday and we were on my way to assist an older woman who had put contaminated fuel in her diesel well worn Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class in Upper Coxley. She informed us that she had left the filling station forecourt and was broken down on a backwater lane along the way to pay a visit to her godchildren. I got the location punched straight into the Satnav and was on-scene inside 60 minutes. I arrived at the stricken lady and removed the contaminated fuel out of the car. Whilst I was doing it she explained, "I have been getting quite absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle working with diesel since I had just got it several days ago because my other one, which I had owned for more than 25 years, inevitably died on me". I got the drain done and she gifted me a Murray mint and thanked me for my efforts. What a delightful Somerset woman!

I enjoyed a terrific day cycling on my day off and was feeling delighted with myself the following working day as I set out to help a young couple who were on holiday in Upper Coxley. They had stopped after inserting the wrong fuel in their boss' Jeep Grand Cherokee, and they were approximately half an hour's travel away. I got there at their car and smiled to myself while I heard to the girl telling her hubby off for turning out to be so daft. "Precisely how could you conceivably be able to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I attempted to explain that this kind of thing happens everyday in Somerset and that it's actually nothing to fret about, but he in spite of everything got an ear bashing by his wife. Unfortunate guy. In any case, I cleaned up and removed the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled them up with the correct fuel. Watching them drive away I waved so long and pondered on what her indoors would say to me in the event that I made the exact same blunder... I'd never ever 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.
