It was around six pm on a Friday and while we were assured a dry afternoon, it had not given up on raining! Paul and I were relaxing commenting on the recent football rankings, waiting around for the seventh fuel drain that day to arrive. Inevitably we had the phone call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had gone to the Sainsburys filling garage in Lower Elkstone and put the wrong fuel in a diesel metallic silver MINI Cooper Countryman rental car. The unfortunate thing was somewhat distressed apparently, crying "I simply can't believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I had forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I advised her to take it easy and not to be concerned, also that these things do happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a safe area and, seeing as it was just a few minutes from the office, we could arrive at the customer fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was removed and she was able to go home to the hotel she was residing at. Although we got really soaked, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive home relaxed and much less stressed. Yet another fuel drain in Staffordshire done well in my books!

Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at pump prices) to fill your vehicle. They can also handle the common problems which might accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not starting, as well as flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a serious issue to handle in an automobile - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the fuel is likely to cause idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both cases pretty easily.

You should know however that any time the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one is going to be totally water-logged and useless.

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 VAT 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.
