The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Adforton (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a full Herefordshire Out of Fuel Service. We will help to fill up the car any time you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at cost) and fill the car. They will be able to handle the most common troubles which may come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually a serious situation to address in an automobile - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel may contribute to idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not remedied effectively, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out than water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both circumstances quite easily.

Take note though that if the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and useless.

This was most definitely what we call the graveyard shift. It was around sunrise and noone was around. It was pretty uneventful thus far, and me and John were loafing looking at a couple of old newspapers. It was an unusual calm hour in Herefordshire. It was in fact so quiet that the moment the telephone rang it made me start! The motorist on the other end told me: "I finished my overnight shift and stupidly put petrol in the diesel father's Nissan Armada". I got him to let us know where exactly the car was and we left, getting to him in Adforton only an hour or so later. The fuel was removed from the motor and he thanked us profusely for coming so quickly. While we were coming back home we found two girls on the side of the street who appeared to have a flat tyre. So we got out to change it, to their delight.

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.
