It was before 5 pm on a Friday and though we were promised a dry afternoon, it had not stopped pouring! Ray and I were seated there discussing the recent tennis rankings, prepared for the seventh fuel drain to arrive. Eventually we received the phone call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had gone to the Tesco filling station in Crimscote and put the wrong fuel in a diesel gorgeous Citron rental in error. The unfortunate thing was very irritated it seemed, telling me "I can not believe I've messed up the vehicle! I'm so used to filling up my petrol car I totally didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" We instructed her to calm down and not to fret, plus that such things unfortunately do happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a protected spot and, because it was no more than a short distance off from our van, we were able to find the woman rather quickly. The bad fuel was extracted so she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Despite the fact we got really drenched, it was all rewarding seeing her drive home contented and a lot less stressed. Another job in Warwickshire done well in my mind!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely an important condition to address in an automobile - especially in modern-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol is going to trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both cases pretty expediently.

Bear in mind that so long as the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will probably be completely 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.
