The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Out of Fuel Services

Out of fuel in Littledean Hill (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a full Gloucestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to refill your vehicle if you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) and refill your car or truck. They will be able to take care of the standard problems which could accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or maybe flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally a significant situation to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol will often lead to idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both cases fairly expediently.

Take note however that if the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and unusable.


Wrong Fuel in Car in GL14 Postcode - Littledean Hill Misfueling

Just had a good night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 on a rainy Tuesday and I was en route to assist an elder woman after she had put the wrong fuel in her diesel green Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class in Littledean Hill. She told us that she had left the petrol station forecourt and was broken down on a backwater road on the way to visit her family. I got the location punched into the TomTom and arrived inside an hour or so. I arrived at the destination and removed the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. As I was working she said, "I have been getting relatively absent-minded in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle working with diesel as I had just bought it a few days ago because my previous one, which I'd used for about thirty years, eventually died". I finished the drain and she presented me a toffee and said thank you. Such a lovely Gloucestershire lady!

Thus, in the event that you have filled your petrol vehicle with diesel, or the wrong fuel in your diesel vehicle anywhere in Gloucestershire, phone us now. Our expert technicians are ready and waiting for you.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Littledean Hill

I am not that inclined to running on weekends, and last week was no different. I'd just come away from the wife and kids after eating a magnificent roast prepared for us by the better half, and I was en route to assist a gentleman after he had filled the incorrect petrol in his baby blue VW Touareg 2. He was somewhere in Littledean Hill thus it wouldn't be long before I reached him. Just as I drove up right behind the car and stepped out he told me "Thank God! I incredibly had my attention on something else and didn't perceive I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Is it likely I inflicted some problems by running it?" I determined that there should not be any kind of harm and also that I would personally drain the wrong fuel right away for him. As expected I got the fuel drained from the car and put in some appropriate fuel, and so one more happy motorist could continue their journey with no fuss. The gentleman could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and that tends to make carrying out work on weekends in Gloucestershire just a little bit less painful in my opinion!

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.
