It was after eight pm on a Thursday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not stopped raining! Paul and me were sitting commenting on the sports, waiting for the 6th call that day to come in. In due time we received a call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had pulled into the Texaco petrol garage in Coley and filled petrol in her diesel deep grey Citron DS5 hire car in error. The poor lady was pretty distressed by the sounds of it, crying "I simply can't believe I've destroyed the car! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I just asked her to settle back and not to worry, and that such things sadly do happen. She was able to maneuver the car to a safe area and, because it was no more than a few minutes from our van, we were able to arrive at the woman without delay. The bad fuel was taken out so she was able to once again go back to the motel she was residing at. Although we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth it to watch her drive home calm and not so stressed. A misfuel correction in Berkshire done well in my books!

The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored close to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to access the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've undertaken numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally a significant matter to handle in a vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel can easily contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both cases rather expediently.

Keep in mind that as long as the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and useless.

We not long ago had a phone call about a businessman who put the incorrect fuel in his raspberry red Suzuki Verona in Coley. He had broken down on the road. "It was incredible how rapid you were in having a technician out to assist me after I erroneously filled my car with the wrong fuel. Thank you". As you can imagine we were on-scene rapidly and purged the engine after draining all of the contaminated fuel from the diesel tank.

This was an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was around sunrise and hardly anyone was around. It had become pretty uneventful so far, and Ryan and I were relaxing browsing a couple of old newspapers. That was an uncommon restful moment in Berkshire. It was indeed so calm that the moment my mobile inevitably rang I jumped with surprise! The person on the other end stated: "I've ended my evening shift and stupidly filled the wrong fuel in the diesel blue Peugeot Bipper". We got him to inform us just where the vehicle was situated and we hit the road, getting to him in Coley under half an hour later. The incorrect fuel was extracted from the engine and he said thanks for showing up so rapidly. As we were returning to the office we noticed two young women on the edge of the street who seemed to have a puncture. Obviously we got out to change it, to their elation.

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.
