Petrol in diesel in Little Carlton needn't be a significant obstacle. We're merely a telephone call away.

It was just after ten pm on a Monday and though we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not given up on raining! Paul and I were sitting commenting on the recent footy, ready for the 8th telephone call that day to come in. Finally we had the phone call from a girl on a business trip who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol station in Little Carlton and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel new-shape VW Fox hire car in error. She was very irritated it seemed, crying "I simply can't believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I am so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I had didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that such things can happen. She managed to move the vehicle into a secure position and, since it was only a few miles off from us, we could arrive at the customer swiftly. The incorrect fuel was drained so she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was living in. Despite the fact that we got really drenched, it was all rewarding to watch her drive home satisfied and not so anxious. One more fuel drain in Lincolnshire well done in my mind!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually a serious matter to address in a car - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol may bring about idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out than water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both circumstances rather quickly.

Be aware 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 installed since the previous one will probably be completely wet and useless.

They will be able to deal with any of the standard problems that could go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

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.
