It was before 5 pm on a Friday and even though we were assured a dry day, it hadn't given up on raining! Mark and I were seated there commenting on the golf, waiting around for the seventh fuel drain to come in. Inevitably we received a phone call from a girl on a company trip who had gone to the BP filling garage in Shipton-on-Cherwell and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel well worn Land Rover Range Rover Sport rental car in error. She was somewhat irritated apparently, telling me "I just can't believe that I've destroyed the car! I'm so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car that I totally did not remember I was running a diesel!" I just instructed her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that such things sadly can happen. She was able to move the car into a protected position and, seeing as it was no more than a few miles away from our van, we were able to reach her almost instantly. The bad fuel was removed so she could return to the hotel she was lodging in. Even though we got extremely drenched, it was all rewarding to watch her drive off relaxed and less worried. Another job in Oxfordshire well done in my mind!

The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Shipton-on-Cherwell (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We operate a complete Oxfordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to re-fill your car in cases where you are stranded on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump price) and refill your vehicle. They can also handle the most common problems which could go with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, as well as flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant situation to deal with in an automobile - especially in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel tank will likely contribute to idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove than water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both circumstances very simply.

Be aware however that if the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will probably be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

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.
