It was just before seven pm on a Wednesday and while we were guaranteed a rainless day, it hadn't ceased raining! Brian and I were seated there talking over the recent rugby, prepared for the 8th job of the day to arrive. Inevitably we had a phone call from a lovely women on a business trip who had pulled into the Texaco petrol station in Alveley and put petrol in a diesel dirty red Toyota Sienna lease car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was somewhat agitated by the sounds of it, crying "I can not believe I've ruined the car! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I had didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to fret, also that things like this unfortunately can happen. She had managed to get the car into a protected space and, since it was no more than a few minutes away from where we were, we were able to arrive at the lady swiftly. The contaminated fuel was removed and she could go home to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got really soaked, it was all worthwhile to see her drive home calm and a lot less anxious. Yet another job in Shropshire well done in my mind!

The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close enough to a car parking spot we are able to reach the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've successfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, can be an important situation to address in a motor vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your fuel tank can produce idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out than water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both situations fairly swiftly.

Keep in mind though that as long as the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and useless.


Wrong Fuel in Car in WV15 Postcode - Alveley Misfueling

A young lady had come to a halt on a street, Alveley having just put the wrong fuel in her car. She was weeping and really troubled as she had put £42 of petrol in her diesel car. As she called us we made an effort to relax her as well as we could, telling her that everything would be okay. When we reached her she was no longer disrupted and was pretty curious in watching our engineer do the fuel drain on her father's BMW Z4 M Roadster. Soon after she said: "My car is akin to my baby, I recently purchased it and it especially concerned me that I had put such a lot of wrong fuel in it. I'm really glad that it was so easily repairable."

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.
