It was before seven pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless evening, it hadn't ceased raining! Brian and I were sitting discussing the weekend's golf rankings, prepared for the next job to arrive. Before long we received a call from a young lady on a business trip who had pulled into the Tesco filling station in Moorgreen and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel brother's Toyota Sienna lease car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was somewhat irritated by the sounds of it, stating "I simply can't believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to relax and not to fret, and that such things sadly do happen. She managed to relocate the car into a safe space and, as it was no more than a few minutes off from us, we were able to reach the lady without delay. The bad fuel was removed and she could get back to the motel she was lodging at. Although we got really drenched, it was all rewarding to see her drive off satisfied and a lot less anxious. One more misfuel correction in Nottinghamshire done well in my mind!

The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near enough to an automobile parking bay we are able to gain access to the storage and remove the fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant situation to handle in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in fuel tank can potentially trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both circumstances very expediently.

You should know that in the event that the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Wrong Fuel Assist Moorgreen - Wrong Fuel in Car Moorgreen

I had a wonderful evening fishing on the weekend and felt contented with myself the next working day as I headed out to aid a new couple who were on vacation in Moorgreen. They stopped after putting diesel into their mustard yellow VW, and the car was approximately half an hour's drive away. I turned up at their position and smirked to myself while I heard to the girl chastising her husband for actually being so foolish. "Just how could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I wanted to tell her that this comes to pass everyday in Nottinghamshire and that it's truly nothing to get worried about, but he yet still got an ear bashing by his wife. Unlucky guy. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed all the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and gave it some correct fuel. Watching them drive off I mouthed bon voyage and wondered what her indoors would ask me if ever I did the exact same thing... I would personally never live it down!

A driver who had sadly put unleaded in his diesel rugged Fiat Nuova 500 phoned us for assistance at the Murco filling station in Moorgreen. He decided to fill up before going on to the nearby caravan park but had put the wrong fuel in his car. "I put unleaded rather than diesel which probably wasn't a great beginning to our holiday break." It was really no challenge at all for our technician to go out and do the fuel drain. We hope everyone enjoyed their holiday break.

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.
