A customer broken down on a road in Hambleden had to have a fuel drain around a few weeks ago. His pristine Jeep Commander was broken down on the road after he had misfueled. He was relaxed when he phoned us but somewhat concerned to get his car off the road as he was triggering considerable traffic. We got to him inside fifteen minutes as our technician was in neighbouring Hambleden and had just finished his previous job. He said, "I do not believe I put unleaded in my diesel car and got stuck !

The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Run Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Hambleden (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a comprehensive Buckinghamshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to re-fill your vehicle if you are stuck on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at cost) and fill up your vehicle. They will be able to take care of any of the most common troubles which could go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally an important issue to address in a vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol will often bring about idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of fully, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both situations quite easily.

Keep in mind though that as long as the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will probably be totally wet and useless.


Wrong Fuel in Car in RG9 Postcode - Hambleden Misfueling

A young lady had come to a halt on a road, Hambleden having just put petrol in her diesel car. She was sobbing and really agitated as she had put £60 of petrol in her diesel car. As she contacted us we attempted to cool her as well as we could, encouraging her that it would be fine. When we got to her she was no longer disrupted and was quite interested in observing our fuel drainer carry out the fuel drain on her dirty red VW Tiguan.

I'm so gratified that it was so easily fixable."

I had a wonderful evening cycling on my holiday and was feeling cheerful with myself the next morning as I set off to help a young couple who were holidaying in Hambleden. They pulled over after adding diesel into their apricot VW Scirocco, and were about half an hour away. I showed up at their car and laughed to myself as I listened to the woman telling her spouse off for turning out to be so foolish. "Just how could you actually find a way to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she said to him. I tried to explain that this problem happens frequently in Buckinghamshire and that it's nothing to fret about, and yet he still had his ear bent by his missus. Unlucky chap. Anyways, I removed all of the wrong fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the correct fuel. While watching them drive away I waved farewell and considered what my missus would tell me if I did the exact same thing... I would personally never live it down!

A customer working in Hambleden contacted us as soon as she tried to get her wrong fueled vehicle to the office. She had put petrol in her diesel precious Citron Picasso and, like plenty prior to her, believed that she could just fill up her car with diesel and it'd be fine. The vehicle was chugging and then it cut out when she got to the the front of her work. We promptly started on the fuel drain after she called and had it sorted within 60 minutes whilst she was at the office. She came outside afterwards and thanked us stating, "I'm really relieved you fixed my car."

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.
