It was around 7 pm on a Thursday and though we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ryan and I were seated there talking over the weekend's golf, ready for the sixth fuel drain of the day to come in. In due time we received a call from a girl on a company expedition who had arrived at the Tesco petrol station in Brushes and put petrol in a diesel work's BMW Z4 rental car in error. She was somewhat affected by the sounds of it, telling me "I can not believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I totally forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that such things unfortunately can happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a secure space and, seeing that it was only a few miles from our van, we were able to reach the customer fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could return to the Travelodge she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got fairly wet, it was all worth the effort to see her drive away satisfied and not so stressed. A fuel drain in Greater Manchester done well in my opinion!

The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be an important condition to address in a vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol will cause idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both cases rather swiftly.

Keep in mind that if ever the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car in SK15 Postcode - Brushes Misfueling

Just had a great night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 am on a bright Wednesday and I was on my way to help an old lady after she had put contaminated fuel in her diesel light green BMW M5 in Brushes. I'd been informed she had left the filling station forecourt and broken down along a rural lane along the way to pay a visit to her family. I got her location plugged into the TomTom and got there within an hour or so. I arrived at the stricken lady and drained the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. While I was doing the drain she told me, "I'm getting relatively absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle needing diesel seeing that I'd only purchased it a short while back right after my former one, which I'd used for in excess of thirty years, eventually broke down". I got the drain done and she gave me a Murray mint and said thanks a lot. Such a pleasant Greater Manchester lady!

This was what we call an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was around 2:30 in the morning and almost noone was stirring. It had been fairly uneventful thus far, and me and Ryan were sitting around reading through a number of old articles. That was a rare restful time in Greater Manchester. Actually it was in fact that quiet that when the phone eventually rang it made me jump! The customer on the other end told me: "I've just concluded my overnight shift and foolishly filled the wrong fuel in a diesel bright white Peugeot 3008 by mistake". I got him to tell us just where he was located and we hit the road, reaching him in Brushes not as much as an hour later. The wrong fuel was cleared from the vehicle. He said thank you for getting there so quickly. While we were going back home we spotted two young women at the edge of the street who seemed to have a puncture. So we got out to help them change it, 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 VA 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.
