The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Common Hill (out of gas - as an American might say)? We operate a full Herefordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to re-fill the car in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill up your vehicle. They will be able to deal with any of the common problems that could accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question an important matter to handle in an automobile - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your fuel may well lead to idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not addressed properly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both circumstances fairly easily.

Bear in mind though that in the event that the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

A somewhat alarmed driver called us from the Texaco filling station at Herefordshire to advise us that he put unleaded in his diesel light green Renault Kangoo; he wasn't quite certain how he'd done it. We told him it was absolutely no problem and soon had our engineer with him to clear the incorrect fuel from his car. Having taken away the contaminated fuel, he was subsequently back behind the wheel. He told us; "I am truly surprised I put the wrong fuel in my car. And the chap who arrived to carry out the fuel drain was incredibly very good - he did not make me seem ridiculous."

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

Now I am certainly not too keen on doing the job weekends, and a while back was no different. I'd only just left the family after a tasty dinner prepared for us by the wife, and I was on my way to sort out a guy after he had filled the wrong fuel in his racing green Mercedes-Benz C-Class. He was somewhere in Common Hill so it wouldn't be a long time before I reached him. Just as I pulled up at the rear of the vehicle and got busy draining he explained to me "Thank the Lord! I incredibly had my concentration on other things and didn't ascertain I had put diesel in my petrol car. Is it likely I brought about any kind of problems because of driving it?" I revealed that truth be told there shouldn't be any kind of harm and also that I would personally get the fuel drained right away for him. Needless to say I drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle and put in the suitable fuel, and thus yet another satisfied client had the ability to continue their journey without fuss. The gentleman did not stop thanking me, and this is exactly what tends to make earning a living on weekends in Herefordshire a tiny bit better for me!

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.
