It was before 9 pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless afternoon, it had not given up on raining! Ryan and I were resting there talking over the golf results, at the ready for the seventh telephone call of the day to arrive. In due time we had the call from a lady on a company trip who had gone to the BP filling station in Barby Nortoft and filled petrol in her diesel matte black Range Rover lease car by mistake. She was pretty distressed apparently, stating "I can not believe I've messed up the car! I'm so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I totally didn't remember I was running a diesel!" We advised her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that things like this sadly do happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a secure position and, since it was just a short distance from our van, we could reach the woman quickly. The incorrect fuel was drained so she could go home to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Although we got pretty soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive away relaxed and not so concerned. Another fuel drain in Northamptonshire done well in my mind!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Barby Nortoft (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a full Northamptonshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We will get out to fill up your car if you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at pump prices) to fill your vehicle. They will be able to handle the usual problems that could go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant condition to handle in an automobile - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel tank will likely produce idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not remedied effectively, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both cases pretty expediently.

Take note though that if the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will likely be completely water-logged and unusable.

A woman from Barby Nortoft with a full car of kids in her diesel mate's Dodge Ram had filled her vehicle with £40 of petrol at the petrol station. She phoned us weeping and really distraught as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel previously and didn't know what could happen to her car in doing so. We told her that everything would be fine and that she would be on the road very quickly. When we arrived on scene she was still upset but as our fuel drainer got to work on the fuel drain she calmed down because she noticed that help was at hand and her car wasn't unfixable. She soon enough cheered up and was up and running saying, "I can't believe my misfortune putting the wrong fuel in my car! Especially 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 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.
