It was just after eight pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't given up on pouring! James and me were seated there talking over the tennis results, waiting around for the 8th call that day to come in. Before long we got a call from a girl on a company trip who had pulled into the Tesco petrol garage in Broadoak and put petrol in her diesel cyan Ford Transit rental car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was quite agitated it seemed, saying "I can't believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol car that I totally didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I instructed her to settle back and not to be concerned, plus that such things sadly can happen. She was able to get the car into a safe spot and, seeing as it was just a short distance off from where we were, we were able to find her quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she could return to the hotel she was staying at. Despite the fact we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive away contented and a lot less anxious. A job in Gloucestershire well done in my books!

The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Broadoak (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a full Gloucestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to re-fill your vehicle if you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) and refill your automobile. They are also able to fix any of the usual troubles which may come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally an important situation to take care of in a vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel is going to produce idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both situations pretty easily.

You should know that whenever the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will probably be totally wet and unusable.

Just had a quality night's sleep! It was 7:00 am on a rainy Tuesday and we were on my way to help an old lovely lady who put petrol in her diesel mint condition Mitsubishi Excel in Broadoak. She informed us that she had left the filling station and was broken down on a rural road en route to visit her family. I popped the location into the Satnav and was on-scene within an hour. I turned up at the vehicle and drained the wrong fuel in the car car. While I was doing it she explained, "I am becoming rather forgetful in my old age and forgot about the vehicle using diesel as I had only purchased it a week ago right after my old one, which I'd owned for more than twenty years, finally gave up the ghost". I finished the job and she gifted me a Murray mint and said thanks a lot. Such a delightful Gloucestershire woman!

A customer driving in Broadoak phoned us as soon as she had managed to get her misfueled vehicle to work. She had put the wrong fuel in her diesel old Land Rover Defender 110 and, like countless prior to her, assumed that she could simply top up her vehicle with diesel and it'd run fine. The car was spluttering and then it cut out when she arrived at the entrance of her work. We promptly started on the fuel drain following her call and got it repaired in an hour while she was at the office. She came out when we finished and thanked us stating, "I'm really pleased you repaired 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.
