Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump price) and refill your automobile. They are also able to handle the most common issues that might accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or maybe flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually an important condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your fuel can easily result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both situations quite simply.

Keep in mind though that if the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one is going to be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Tadmarton

Now I'm not actually that enthusiastic about doing work on Sundays, and the other day was no different. I had only just come away from home after a wonderful Sunday roast cooked for me by the better half, and I was off to assist a fellow after he put the wrong fuel in his uncle's BMW M3. He was stationed in Tadmarton so it wouldn't be long before I got to him. Just as I pulled up at the car and got busy draining he told me "Praise the Almighty! I had my concentration on other things and didn't perceive I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Have I inflicted any damage because of starting it?" I said that there should not be problems and that I'd get the fuel drained quickly for him. It goes without saying that I got the contaminated fuel drained from the car and filled up with the appropriate fuel, and so yet another delighted motorist could continue his traveling with no hassle. He did not stop saying thanks to me, and this is exactly what helps make earning a living on Sundays in Oxfordshire just a tiny bit less painful for me personally!

This was what is called the graveyard shift. It was around dawn and hardly anyone was stirring. It was fairly quiet until now, and Brian and I were relaxing perusing a few old articles. It was an uncommon tranquil hour in Oxfordshire. Actually it was in fact that calm that when my mobile eventually rang it made me jump! The motorist explained: "I've only just completed my evening shift and foolishly filled the wrong fuel in the dark red Cadillac DTS in error". We got him to let us know just where the vehicle was located and we left, arriving in Tadmarton less than an hour later. The incorrect fuel was removed from the vehicle. He thanked us profusely for getting there so promptly. As we were coming back home we found two young ladies at the edge of the road who looked like they suffered a flat. Accordingly we got out to change it, much to their elation.

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.

Normal Wrong Fuel Warning signs:

This is a list of usual wrong fuel symptoms:

  • Loss of vehicle power
