It was just before 5 pm on a Tuesday and while we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it had not ceased raining! Mark and I were relaxing discussing the recent tennis rankings, waiting around for the next fuel drain of the day to arrive. In due time we received a call from a young lady on a company trip who had gone to the Texaco petrol garage in Sandiacre and put petrol in a diesel stylish Hyundai Excel rental. The poor thing was rather affected by the sounds of it, saying "I can't believe I've messed up the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I completely forgot I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to calm down and not to be concerned, and also that things like this unfortunately happen. She had managed to relocate the car into a secure spot and, because it was no more than a short distance away from us, we were able to reach the customer without delay. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was staying in. Despite the fact we got really soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive home relaxed and a lot less apprehensive. One more fuel drain in Derbyshire done well in my opinion!

The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Sandiacre (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a complete Derbyshire Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to re-fill the car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (at pump prices) and refill your automobile. They can also take care of any of the typical issues which can accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or maybe flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually a serious issue to address in a vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol will likely result in idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both cases rather expediently.

Take note that if the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and unusable.

This was certainly the graveyard shift. It was roughly 2:30 in the morning and almost noone was about. It was fairly quiet until now, and Paul and I were loafing looking through a number of old articles. That was an uncommon tranquil time in Derbyshire. Actually it was in fact so quiet that the instant my mobile finally rang it made me start! The person stated: "I have concluded my night shift and stupidly put the wrong fuel in the blue Nissan Pathfinder in error". I told him to inform us just where the car was situated and we set off, ending up in Sandiacre an hour later. The wrong fuel was extracted from the motor. He said thank you for showing up so promptly. As we were returning to base we spotted two ladies on the edge of the road who looked like they suffered a flat. Accordingly we pulled up to change it, much 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.
