It was just after 8 pm on a Wednesday and though we were guaranteed a rainless night, it had not stopped raining! Dan and I were seated there talking about the recent rugby rankings, ready for the next call for the day to arrive. Inevitably we got a call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol garage in Osbaston and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel teal VW Jetta rental by mistake. The poor thing was rather affected apparently, saying "I cannot believe I've messed up the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I totally forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I advised her to take it easy and not to be concerned, plus that things like this regrettably do happen. She had managed to get the car into a protected space and, as it was no more than a short distance away from the office, we were able to arrive at her almost instantly. The wrong fuel was extracted and she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got really wet, it was all worth it to watch her drive off relaxed and not so stressed. Yet another misfuel correction in Shropshire well done in my books!

The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked near to parking spot we should be able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant situation to deal with in a car - particularly in current day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in fuel is likely to bring about idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both cases very simply.

Remember though that whenever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Ahhh, that was a great night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a gloomy Saturday and we were on my way to assist an old sweetheart who had put the wrong fuel in her diesel apple green Ford Club Wagon in Osbaston. I'd been informed she drove away from the petrol station and pulled up in a country lane on the way to see her grandchildren. I popped her location in the Satnav and got there inside an hour. I arrived at the stricken lady and extracted the wrong fuel out of the car. As I was doing the work she said, "I am becoming fairly forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle taking diesel as I had only just purchased it a short while back because my other one, which I'd had for over 30 years, inevitably died on me". I got the drain done and she presented me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. What a lovely Shropshire lady!

Imagine conking out in a car full of the improper fuel halfway down the street.

This was certainly an unsociable time to be awake. It was roughly 3am and noone was around. It was quite uneventful until now, and John and I were loafing about reading through several old articles. It was an uncommon restful hour in Shropshire. Actually it was in fact that quiet that the instant the telephone ultimately rang I leaped! The customer on the opposite end stated: "I have only just finished my night shift and incredibly put petrol in a bright red BMW Z4 in error". I got him to let us know where exactly he was located and we set off, ending up in Osbaston half an hour later. The incorrect fuel was cleared from the vehicle and he thanked us profusely for coming so fast. While we were returning home we spotted two girls on the side of the street who appeared to have a flat tyre. Accordingly we got out and helped them change it, 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.
