It was just before 10 pm on a Saturday and while we were assured a rainless night, it had not stopped pouring! Ryan and me were sitting talking about the weekend's football rankings, at the ready for the 6th telephone call for the day to come in. Eventually we got the phone call from a young lady on a company excursion who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol garage in Oxton and filled petrol in a diesel red Fiat Uno lease car. She was very irritated it seemed, stating "I just can't believe I have ruined the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol car I totally didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to relax and not to be concerned, and that such things sadly happen. She was able to relocate the car to a secure position and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes from us, we were able to arrive at her rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was drained so she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth it to see her drive off contented and much less apprehensive. Yet another fuel drain in Merseyside done well in my mind!

The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Oxton (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We operate a full Merseyside Out of Fuel Service. We're able to come to fill up your car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump prices) and refill your vehicle. They can also handle the normal problems which can accompany running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally a significant issue to take care of in an automobile - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel can easily produce idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both cases quite expediently.

Remember though that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will probably be completely wet and useless.

I'm so happy that it was easily fixable."

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.
