It was close to eight pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless night, it hadn't given up on pouring! Brian and I were resting talking about the recent golf, ready for the sixth job for the day to arrive. Inevitably we got the phone call from a young lady on a company excursion who had arrived at the Esso petrol station in Hawkedon and filled petrol in her diesel dark red Smart Fortwo rental. She was somewhat affected apparently, saying "I can not believe that I've ruined the car! I'm so used to filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I just told her to relax and not to be concerned, also that these things happen. She managed to get the car into a safe position and, because it was no more than a short distance off from us, we could arrive at the customer almost instantly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could get back to the Premier Inn she was lodging in.

The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally an important condition to address in an automobile - particularly in current day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel is likely to contribute to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both situations fairly easily.

You should know however that whenever the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Wrong Fuel Assist Hawkedon - Wrong Fuel in Car Hawkedon

I had a fantastic evening fishing on the weekend and felt delighted the next morning as I set out to assist a new couple away in Hawkedon. They had conked out after putting the wrong fuel into their father's Audi A8, and they were around half an hour's travel away. I showed up at their car and smirked to myself as I heard to the girl telling her partner off for being so stupid. "Just how could you even find a way to fill the vehicle up using the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I tried to clarify that this problem happens on daily basis in Suffolk and that it's truly absolutely nothing to be anxious about, however he still had an earful. Poor chap. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled them up with the proper fuel. Watching while they drove down the road I mouthed good-bye and considered what her indoors would tell me if I did the very same thing... I would under no circumstances hear the end of it!

We provide you with clean fuel at petrol station cost, and we can ordinarily have your vehicle fixed and all set to head out within one hour. All mixed fuel is disposed of by us by way of a registered waste transporter and recycled. It doesn't matter wherever you are in the United Kingdom, Wrong Fuel SoS is able to get a vehicle out to you to perform a complete fuel drain on your vehicle.

A man who had sadly put petrol in his diesel metallic blue Cadillac Eldorado called us for assistance at the filling station in Hawkedon.

"I put unleaded rather than diesel which probably wasn't a great start to our holiday break." It was absolutely no hassle by any means for our engineer to go along and perform the fuel drain.

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.
