It was around ten pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped raining! James and I were sitting talking over the recent tennis rankings, prepared for the sixth fuel drain to arrive. In due time we received a call from a lady on a company trip who had gone to the Shell petrol station in South Woodford and filled petrol in her diesel stylish Jeep Cherokee rental car. She was somewhat troubled by the sounds of it, stating "I just can't believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember that I was driving a diesel!" We advised her to relax and not to worry, and also that things like this sadly do happen. She had managed to relocate the car into a secure spot and, seeing that it was just a few miles from the office, we could reach her without delay. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could go home to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Although we got pretty drenched, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive off relaxed and not so worried. A misfuel correction in Redbridge well done in my books!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally an important condition to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel tank is going to bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with fully, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both cases fairly swiftly.

Keep in mind that as long as the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will probably be totally wet and unusable.

Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in South Woodford (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a complete Redbridge Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to re-fill your car if you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our technicians can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump price) and refill your car. They will handle the usual troubles which may go along with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries due to over-cranking.


Wrong Fuel in Car in E18 Postcode - South Woodford Misfueling

What a good night of sleep! It was 7:30 am on a gloomy Saturday and we were on my way to help an elder lady who put petrol in her diesel mate's Hyundai Accent in South Woodford. She told us that she had left the filling station and was stranded in a country lane on the way to visit her grandchildren. I popped the location into the TomTom and arrived inside 60 minutes. I reached the destination and removed the wrong fuel from the car. As I was doing the drain she said to me, "I have been getting somewhat forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle taking diesel as I had only got it a couple of days back because my former one, which I had owned for more than 25 years, eventually died on me". I finished the job and she gifted me a toffee and said thanks. What a lovely Redbridge woman!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car South Woodford

I'm not actually very enthusiastic about working Sundays, and a week ago was the same. I'd just departed the family filled with a magnificent Sunday roast prepared by the wife, and I was off to sort out a guy who had put the wrong fuel in his super VW Touareg. He was situated in South Woodford hence it wasn't a long time before I got to him. As I drove up behind the car and got busy draining he explained to me "Praise God! I incredibly had my attention on other considerations and did not grasp that I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Have I caused any damage by driving it?" I revealed truth be told there probably should not be any kind of problems and also that I would personally get the contaminated fuel drained right away for him. Needless to say I removed the contaminated fuel from the car and put in the appropriate fuel, and one more happy customer could continue his trip without the need for bother. He could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and that is actually what tends to make working on Sundays in Redbridge a little easier for me personally!

We told her that everything should be ok and that she would be back in action soon.

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.
