It was about five pm on a Friday and though we were promised a rainless evening, it hadn't ceased raining! Ryan and I were seated there talking about the weekend's football rankings, waiting for the 8th job of the day to arrive. Eventually we got the phone call from a girl on a business trip who had arrived at the Shell filling station in Hanley Child and filled petrol in a diesel stylish Renault Megane rental car. She was pretty affected apparently, crying "I can't believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car I had forgot I was running a diesel!" I just asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that these things unfortunately often happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a safe spot and, because it was just a few miles from our van, we could reach her without delay. The wrong fuel was extracted so she was able to return to the motel she was residing in. Even though we got extremely wet, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive off calm and much less anxious. Yet another fuel drain in Worcestershire well done in my mind!

Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Hanley Child (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a full Worcestershire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to refill the car if you are stuck on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump prices) and fill your car or truck. They are also able to deal with the common troubles which might come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be an important condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel can easily lead to idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both situations very expediently.

Be aware however that as long as the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will be totally wet and ineffective.

The driver of a beautiful VW GLI was regretful that he had put petrol in his diesel automobile when he got as far as the road and it coughed and ceased.

I appreciated a fantastic afternoon golfing on my day off and felt contented with myself the following working day as I headed out to help a new couple who were holidaying in Hanley Child. They had conked out after adding the wrong fuel into their racing green Land Rover Range Rover Sport, and they were close to half an hour away. I turned up at their position and smiled while I heard to the lady telling off her partner for being so foolish. "Just how could you even be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I wanted to explain that this kind of thing goes on quite frequently in Worcestershire and that it's nothing at all to get worried about, nevertheless he still had his ear bent. Unlucky boy. In any case, I cleaned up and removed all of the wrong fuel, flushed the motor and filled them up with the proper fuel. While they drove away I mouthed farewell and thought about what my missus would say to me if perhaps I did the same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!

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.
