It was just before ten pm on a Wednesday and even though we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not ceased raining! Mark and I were relaxing commenting on the weekend's footy rankings, waiting for the next fuel drain of the day to arrive. In due time we received a call from a lady on a company trip who had pulled into the Esso filling station in Cholesbury and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel mate's VW Golf III lease car by mistake. She was somewhat irritated by the sounds of it, saying "I simply can't believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot that I was operating a diesel!" We advised her to take it easy and not to fret, and that these things sadly often happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a secure position and, seeing that it was only a short distance away from us, we could reach the lady almost instantly. The incorrect fuel was removed so she could go home to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Even though we got thoroughly wet, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive home relaxed and much less apprehensive. One more job in Buckinghamshire well done in my mind!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Cholesbury (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a full Buckinghamshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to re-fill the car in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill your automobile. They can also handle the common problems which may accompany running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually a serious matter to handle in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel tank will produce idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both situations rather simply.

You should know that so long as the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one is going to be completely wet and useless.

He told us; "I am really surprised I put the wrong fuel in my car. And the man who appeared to carry out the fuel drain was very nice - he didn't make me seem like an idiot."

He had mistakenly put unleaded in his diesel car and got so far as the road before being forced to pull over. It was actually early in the day and our technician, who stays locally, got to him in approximately twenty minutes. We were able to get rid of the incorrect fuel and put clean diesel back into the vehicle. "Many thanks to you for your fast response, especially at 3 a.m., I truly am grateful for 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.
