It was just after 9 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and me were relaxing talking over the rugby results, at the ready for the sixth job that day to come in. Before long we got a call from a young lady on a company expedition who had gone to the Texaco filling garage in Barns Green and filled petrol in a diesel super Vauxhall Movano lease car in error. She was very agitated it seemed, saying "I just can't believe that I've ruined the car! I am just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I had didn't remember I was using a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to fret, and that things like this regrettably often happen.

Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Barns Green (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a comprehensive West Sussex Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to fill up your automobile if you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill your vehicle. They will be able to handle the usual problems which might go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant matter to address in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the fuel tank may well trigger idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied fully, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out as compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both cases pretty simply.

You should know though that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

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.
