It was just before 6 pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless night, it had not stopped raining! James and me were sitting discussing the weekend's footy, prepared for the sixth fuel drain of the day to come in. Finally we got a phone call from a lady on a company excursion who had arrived at the Shell filling garage in Bushley Green and filled petrol in a diesel old Mercedes-Benz C-Class lease car in error. She was quite agitated it seemed, stating "I cannot believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling my petrol car that I had didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to fret, and that these things sadly often happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle into a safe space and, seeing as it was only a short distance from where we were, we could reach the customer right away. The wrong fuel was removed so she could return to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Although we got pretty soaked, it was all worth it to watch her drive home calm and a lot less anxious. A job in Worcestershire done well in my books!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be a significant matter to handle in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol is going to contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both situations pretty swiftly.

Remember however that any time the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one will likely be thoroughly wet and useless.

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel tank sitting at the back of the garden with unwanted, useless or degraded fuel? We could assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many privately owned and business premises in Worcestershire to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a few drums in a shed, as long as we are able to reach it, we could certainly drain it for you.

A lady living in Bushley Green contacted us after she managed to get her misfueled car to her office. She had filled the wrong fuel in her diesel red Mazda MX-3 and, like plenty before her, thought that she could basically top up the vehicle with diesel and it'd run no problem. The engine was chugging and then it cut out when she reached the entrance of her office. We quickly went to work on the fuel drain following her call and had it resolved in 60 minutes while she was at work. She came outside when we finished and thanked us saying, "I'm very glad you sorted my car."

  • Decrease in engine power
  • Vehicle dying, spluttering or even coughing
  • Difficulties starting the vehicle
  • Abnormal smoking

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.
