It was after 5 pm on a Saturday and though we were promised a rainless night, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Ray and me were resting going over the recent football rankings, at the ready for the 8th call that day to come in. Eventually we received a call from a woman on a business trip who had gone to the Tesco petrol station in Peckleton and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel clean white Citron C4 hire car. She was fairly irritated it seemed, stating "I simply cannot believe I have destroyed the car! I am so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I totally did not remember that I was using a diesel!" We asked her to calm down and not to fret, plus that such things regrettably often happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a protected space and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes off from the office, we could arrive at the customer quickly. The contaminated fuel was drained so she was able to return to the Travelodge she was staying at. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth it to see her drive home contented and much less stressed. Yet another job in Leicestershire well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Peckleton (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a complete Leicestershire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will come to re-fill your automobile in the event that you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump prices) to refill your car. They are also able to take care of any of the usual troubles that can go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question a serious matter to address in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol may well bring about idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both circumstances quite swiftly.

Take note though that any time the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will be thoroughly wet and unusable.


Wrong Fuel in Car in LE9 Postcode - Peckleton Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a fantastic night of sleep! It was 7:30 on a gloomy Wednesday and I was en route to help an older lovely lady who put the wrong fuel in her diesel friend's Volvo940 in Peckleton. I had been informed she had driven away from the petrol station forecourt and stranded in a country lane on the way to visit her family. I got her location plugged in the Satnav and got there in less than an hour. I got to the destination and removed the contaminated fuel from the car. As I was doing it she explained, "Now I'm becoming fairly forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the car taking diesel as I had only got it a couple of days back right after my previous car, which I had for about twenty five years, inevitably stopped working". I got the drain completed and she gifted me a Murray mint and said thanks a lot. What a precious Leicestershire woman!

We not long ago had a phone call from a businessman who put the incorrect fuel in his beautiful Skoda Yeti in Peckleton. He had come to a stand-still on the road. "After putting unleaded in my diesel car I didn't discover the quandary before it broke down. You removed the wrong fuel from my car and got it running again. I was happy due to both your call-out time and your rates". It goes without saying that we appeared promptly and purged the engine after flushing all the unleaded from the diesel tank. The motorist was smiling again by the time we were done and he went away happy.

A lady working in Peckleton phoned us shortly after she managed to get her wrong fueled vehicle to work. She had filled the wrong fuel in her diesel grass green Toyota RAV4 and, like plenty prior to her, assumed that she could just fill up the tank with diesel and it would run okay. The vehicle was chugging and then it died when she reached the the front of her office. We quickly started on the fuel drain following her call and got it sorted in an hour or so while she was at the office. She came out soon after and thanked us stating, "I'm very happy you fixed my car."

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.
