It was around 10 pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it had not stopped raining! James and I were resting there going over the recent tennis, at the ready for the 8th job of the day to arrive. Finally we had the phone call from a girl on a company expedition who had gone to the Texaco petrol station in Ashford Common and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel faithful Hyundai Santa Fe rental car. She was pretty troubled it seemed, crying "I still can't believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol car I completely didn't remember I was running a diesel!" I just told her to relax and not to fret, also that these things sadly happen. She had managed to relocate the car to a safe position and, seeing that it was only a short distance from where we were, we were able to find the lady without delay. The incorrect fuel was taken out and she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got extremely wet, it was all rewarding seeing her drive away satisfied and much less stressed. Another job in Surrey well done in my mind!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually a significant condition to take care of in a car - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.
Putting water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol can easily lead to idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain than water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both cases rather expediently.
Take note though that any time the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will likely be totally water-logged and unusable.

Ahhh, that was a great night of sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a bright Sunday and I was on my way to help an elder lovely lady after she put petrol in her diesel spotless Audi RS4 in Ashford Common. She informed us that she drove away from the filling station and stranded on a backwater lane on route to see her family. I plugged the location into the Satnav and was on-scene inside an hour or so. I reached the car and removed the contaminated fuel in the car car. As I was doing it she explained, "I'm becoming quite absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle working with diesel seeing that I had only purchased it a few days ago because my former car, which I had had for over thirty years, finally died". I got the job completed and she gave me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. What a lovely Surrey woman!

A lady living in Ashford Common phoned us after she had tried to get her misfueled vehicle to the office. She had filled unleaded in her diesel metallic grey Cadillac Escalade and, like many prior to her, thought that she would be able to simply fill up the vehicle with diesel and it'd run fine. The car was chugging and then it cut out when she arrived at the the front of her work. We promptly started on the fuel drain after she called and got it repaired in an hour while she was working.

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 VAT 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.
