The 3 things you HAVE TO know about petrol in diesel!

Out of fuel in Shirrell Heath (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We perform a full Hampshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to fill up your automobile in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) to fill up your automobile. They are also able to handle any of the common troubles which could go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually an important issue to deal with in a car - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the fuel will result in idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out than water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both situations very easily.

Be aware though that if the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will likely be totally water-logged and ineffective.

This really was the graveyard shift. It was about 3:30am and noone was around. It was pretty dead so far, and Mark and I were sitting about looking through a few old newspapers. It was a rare peaceful hour in Hampshire. It was that tranquil that when the telephone inevitably rang it made me start! The motorist said: "I've finished my overnight shift and incredibly poured the wrong fuel in a partner's Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class by mistake". We got him to inform us where exactly he was located and we set off, getting to him in Shirrell Heath under an hour or so later. The fuel was removed from the car and he said many thanks for coming out so promptly. While we were heading back home we saw two women on the side of the street who looked like they had a flat.

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.
