It was about seven pm on a Thursday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't given up on raining! James and I were seated there going over the sports, at the ready for the 6th telephone call for the day to arrive. Finally we received the phone call from a girl on a business expedition who had pulled into the Texaco filling garage in Woldhurst and filled petrol in her diesel sky blue Land Rover Freelander rental car in error. The poor thing was rather agitated by the sounds of it, telling me "I just can't believe that I have messed up the car! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot I was operating a diesel!" I asked her to settle back and not to fret, and that things like this unfortunately often happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle to a protected area and, seeing that it was no more than a few miles from our van, we could get to the lady without delay. The bad fuel was drained so she was able to go home to the motel she was staying at. Despite the fact we got fairly soaked, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away calm and much less anxious. A job in West Sussex done well in my books!

The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Woldhurst (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a full West Sussex Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to fill up your vehicle if you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and fill your automobile. They are also able to fix any of the standard troubles which might come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or maybe flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly an important condition to handle in a car - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol can result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both cases fairly swiftly.

You should know that whenever the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and useless.

Just had a fantastic night's sleep! It was 7:30 on a warm Wednesday and we were off to assist an old sweetheart who had put the wrong fuel in her diesel Ferarri red Saab 9-2X in Woldhurst. She told us that she had driven away from the petrol station forecourt and stranded in a backwater lane along the way to see her family. I got the location plugged straight into the Satnav and got there within an hour. I reached the location and removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle. Whilst I was working she told me, "I have been getting somewhat absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the car working with diesel as I had only bought it a week back when my other car, which I owned for about twenty five years, inevitably died". I got the drain completed and she presented me a peppermint and said thanks. Such a delightful West Sussex woman!

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.
