Local Call-Out and Roadside Repair in Ealing

Wrong fuel in your car in Southall? You've arrived at the right people. We are able to assist you in this hour of need and get you running once more with our specialist fuel removal services.

It was before five pm on a Thursday and although we were promised a dry night, it had not stopped raining! Ryan and I were relaxing there discussing the weekend's sports, at the ready for the next fuel drain to come in. Eventually we got the call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had pulled into the BP filling station in Southall and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel customised Volvo C70 lease car in error. The poor thing was pretty agitated it seemed, saying "I simply can't believe I've messed up the car! I'm just so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I completely didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" We told her to settle back and not to be concerned, also that these things unfortunately often happen. She was able to move the vehicle into a safe spot and, because it was no more than a few minutes away from us, we were able to find the woman rather quickly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could return to the Premier Inn she was living at. Although we got extremely soaked, it was all rewarding to see her drive home relaxed and less stressed. Another misfuel correction in Ealing done well in my mind!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a serious matter to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel is going to lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied correctly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both situations quite easily.

Be aware though that so long as the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will likely be completely water-logged and unusable.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Southall (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a complete Ealing Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to fill up your vehicle any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill your vehicle. They will be able to deal with any of the typical troubles that may go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, as well as flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.


Wrong Fuel in Car in UB1 Postcode - Southall Misfueling

A lady had stopped on a road, Southall just after having put petrol in her diesel car. She was in tears and really distressed as she had put £60 of petrol in her diesel car. As she called us we tried to relax her as well as we could, assuring her that all would be ok. When we got to her she was no longer distressed and was very interested in watching our engineer perform the fuel drain on her bright yellow Fiat Uno. Afterwards she said: "My car is akin to my child, I only recently paid for it and thus it especially freaked me out that I had put a lot of wrong fuel in it. I'm terribly happy that it was so very easily repairable."

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Southall

We not long ago had a phone call from a businessman who put the incorrect fuel in his baby blue Skoda Yeti in Southall. He had come to a stand-still on the street. "After inserting petrol in my diesel car I didn't recognise the issue until I ground to a halt. You cleared the wrong fuel from my car and had it functioning . I was pleased as a result of both how swift you were and your charges". Needless to say we appeared rapidly and purged the engine after draining the unleaded from the diesel tank. When he arrived the fuel drainer said the motorist was scowling, but was happy afterwards.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Southall - Fuel Rescue Southall

A driver from Southall with her kids in her diesel mustard yellow Range Rover Evoque had put £50 of petrol at the Tesco petrol station. She phoned us weeping and genuinely upset as she had never wrong fueled before and didn't know what might happen to her vehicle because of it. We told her that the car would be fine and that she would be back ready to go in no time at all. When we arrived on scene she was still distressed but while our technician started work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she noticed that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't wrecked. She soon brightened up and was up and running saying, "I simply can't believe my bad luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Particularly with the little ones in the back."

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.
