It was about ten pm on a Tuesday and though we were assured a dry and fresh night, it had not given up on raining! Ryan and I were sitting talking about the weekend's tennis results, waiting for the 6th fuel drain to arrive. Eventually we had a call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had gone to the Texaco petrol station in Slaley and put petrol in a diesel wife's VW Eurovan rental car. She was fairly affected apparently, stating "I just can't believe I have messed up the vehicle! I am so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember I was using a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to worry, and that things like this regrettably do happen. She was able to maneuver the car into a protected spot and, seeing as it was just a short distance away from us, we were able to get to the lady right away. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Despite the fact we got fairly wet, it was all worth it seeing her drive home contented and less apprehensive. A misfuel correction in Northumberland well done in my mind!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally a serious matter to handle in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank will likely contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of fully, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain than water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both cases rather simply.

Remember though that if the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one is going to be completely wet and ineffective.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Slaley (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a comprehensive Northumberland Run Out of Fuel Service. We will help to fill up your car any time you are stranded on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at cost) to fill up your vehicle. They are also able to fix the standard troubles which might go along with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries due to over-cranking.


Wrong Fuel in Car in NE47 Postcode - Slaley Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a quality night of sleep! It was 7:30 on a gloomy Bank Holiday Monday and we were en route to help an elder lovely lady after she had put the wrong fuel in her diesel dad's Honda Civic Si in Slaley. She told us that she had left the petrol station and was broken down on a rural road on the way to visit her grandchildren. I punched the location in the Satnav and was on-scene inside an hour or so. I got to the vehicle and drained the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. While I was doing the work she explained, "Now I'm getting fairly absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the car working with diesel because I had just acquired it a short while ago because my previous one, which I'd used for about 30 years, eventually died on me". I completed the drain and she gave me a toffee and said thanks a lot. What a delightful Northumberland woman!

Wrong Fuel Assist Slaley - Wrong Fuel in Car Slaley

I enjoyed a terrific day golfing during my holiday and was feeling pleased with myself the following morning as I was en route to assist a new family away in Slaley. They'd broken down after inserting the wrong fuel into their dark green Mitsubishi Endeavor, and were roughly half an hour away. I turned up at their car and smiled while I heard to the wife telling her man off for turning out to be so confused. "Exactly how could you possibly be able to fill the car up using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I attempted to tell her that this occurs on daily basis in Northumberland and that it's nothing to worry about, and yet he in spite of everything had his ear bent. Unlucky lad. At any rate, I extracted all of the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled it up with the correct fuel. While they drove away I waved good bye and wondered what my wife would tell me if I did the exact same thing... I would never live it down!

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.
