It was close to seven pm on a Friday and while we were guaranteed a dry day, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and I were relaxing there talking over the recent golf results, waiting around for the sixth telephone call for the day to arrive. Before long we had the call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had gone to the Texaco filling station in Tollard Royal and filled petrol in her diesel brother's Hyundai Equus rental. The unfortunate lady was somewhat affected it seemed, stating "I simply can't believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I totally did not remember I was running a diesel!" I advised her to relax and not to be concerned, plus that these things happen. She had managed to relocate the car to a protected space and, seeing as it was just a short distance off from us, we were able to reach the lady right away. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was residing at. Despite the fact we got pretty drenched, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive off calm and a lot less worried. One more job in Wiltshire done well in my mind!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly an important situation to handle in a vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol can potentially produce idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both circumstances pretty quickly.

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.
