It was just after ten pm on a Friday and while we were guaranteed a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not stopped raining! Dan and me were resting discussing the recent football, waiting for the seventh telephone call of the day to come in. In due time we got the call from a lady on a business excursion who had gone to the Esso petrol garage in Ladywell and put petrol in a diesel new-shape Chevrolet Caprice lease car. The poor lady was pretty affected it seemed, saying "I just can't believe I've messed up the car! I am so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I had didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" We told her to settle back and not to fret, and also that things like this unfortunately do happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle to a secure space and, because it was just a few minutes from where we were, we were able to get to her quickly.

The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a serious condition to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol will bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both cases fairly expediently.

Bear in mind though that if ever the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will probably be thoroughly wet and useless.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Ladywell (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We run a complete Camden Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to refill the car in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump price) and refill your vehicle. They will be able to take care of the common problems that may go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, and even flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.


Wrong Fuel in Car in SE13 Postcode - Ladywell Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a quality night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 am on a bright Wednesday and I was off to assist an old lady who had put contaminated fuel in her diesel new Cadillac Seville in Ladywell. I had been informed she had driven away from the petrol station and was broken down on a rural road on route to see her grandchildren. I got her location punched in the TomTom and was on-scene in less than an hour or so. I turned up at the car and removed the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. As I was doing the work she said, "I have been becoming fairly forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle working with diesel as I'd only bought it a few days ago right after my old car, which I'd owned for in excess of twenty years, eventually died". I got the drain done and she gifted me a toffee and said thanks. Such a precious Camden woman!

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.
