It was before 8 pm on a Saturday and though we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Paul and I were seated discussing the weekend's footy results, waiting around for the 8th fuel drain for the day to come in. Inevitably we had a phone call from a young lady on a company trip who had arrived at the BP filling garage in Aughton Park and put the wrong fuel in a diesel luxury Cadillac XLR-V rental car. The unfortunate thing was rather troubled it seemed, stating "I simply cannot believe that I've messed up the vehicle! I am so used to filling up my petrol car I completely forgot that I was running a diesel!" I just instructed her to relax and not to fret, plus that these things sadly happen. She had managed to move the vehicle into a protected space and, seeing as it was only a short distance off from our van, we were able to find the woman almost instantly. The bad fuel was taken out so she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was living in. Despite the fact that we got pretty soaked, it was all worth the time to see her drive away satisfied and much less apprehensive. Another job in Lancashire well done in my books!

The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel will likely trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both circumstances pretty easily.

Remember though that whenever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel tank at the back of the garden with out of date, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to help you to dispose of it. We have been called out to a number of domestic and commercial premises in Lancashire to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.

Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in an outbuilding, if we can reach it, we can drain it for you.

Wrong Fuel in Car Lancashire - Petrol in Diesel Car Aughton Park

We a few weeks ago got a call about a driver who had put the wrong fuel in his dark red Nissan Leaf in Aughton Park. He had broken down on the street. "After inserting petrol in my diesel car I didn't notice the problem till it conked out. You cleared the wrong fuel from my car and got it running . I was amazed as a result of both how fast you were and your value for money". It goes without saying that we showed up promptly and flushed the engine after draining the petrol from the diesel tank. The motorist was pleased as punch by the time we finished and he was able to drive away completely happy.

This was exactly what is called an unsociable hour to be awake. It was close to 3:30 in the morning and nobody was about. It had become pretty uneventful up to now, and me and Ray were relaxing looking through some old articles. That was an uncommon peaceful time in Lancashire. It was in fact that relaxing that the moment the phone finally rang I jumped! The person on the other end stated: "I have just concluded my evening shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in a diesel bright red Audi A3". I asked him to tell us just where he was and we hit the road, arriving in Aughton Park only an hour or so later. The fuel was taken out from the vehicle. He thanked us profusely for coming out so promptly. While we were coming back to base we spotted two young ladies on the side of the street who seemed like they suffered a puncture. As a result we got out to change it, much 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.
