It was around ten pm on a Saturday and although we were assured a dry night, it hadn't ceased pouring! Brian and I were relaxing discussing the recent rugby rankings, waiting around for the 6th call that day to come in. Finally we had the phone call from a lady on a business excursion who had pulled into the Shell filling garage in Flecknoe and put the wrong fuel in her diesel mustard yellow Jaguar XJ hire car in error. The poor lady was rather agitated it seemed, crying "I just can't believe that I have messed up the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I just asked her to take it easy and not to fret, and that these things often happen. She had managed to get the vehicle into a protected position and, since it was no more than a few minutes off from the office, we were able to find her right away. The wrong fuel was removed so she could get back to the motel she was staying in. Although we got very soaked, it was all worth it to see her drive off relaxed and less stressed. Yet another misfuel correction in Warwickshire done well in my books!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be a serious matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel may well result in idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove than water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both situations fairly expediently.

Keep in mind though that as long as the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.

Wrong Fuel in Car in CV23 Postcode - Flecknoe Misfueling

What a fantastic night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a sunny Tuesday and I was on the way to assist an old lady who had put contaminated fuel in her diesel uncle's Nissan Murano in Flecknoe. I'd been informed she had left the filling station and stranded in a backwater road on route to see her grandchildren. I popped her location straight into the TomTom and was with her within an hour or so. I reached the location and extracted the wrong fuel out of the car. Whilst I was doing the work she told me, "I am getting rather forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle needing diesel seeing that I'd only just got it a week back after my other one, which I'd had for more than thirty years, eventually gave up the ghost". I completed the drain and she presented me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. Such a precious Warwickshire lady!

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.
