It was before 5 pm on a Thursday and though we were promised a dry evening, it hadn't given up on pouring! Ray and me were relaxing there discussing the sports, at the ready for the 8th job that day to arrive. Inevitably we got a call from a young lady on a business trip who had arrived at the Esso filling garage in Picklescott and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel white Honda Civic GX rental car by mistake. She was quite irritated apparently, stating "I cannot believe I've ruined the vehicle! I am just so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I had forgot I was operating a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that things like this unfortunately often happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a protected area and, seeing that it was just a few minutes from where we were, we were able to find the woman quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could go home to the motel she was staying in. Despite the fact we got really drenched, it was all rewarding seeing her drive away contented and much less stressed. Yet another misfuel correction in Shropshire done well in my opinion!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is definitely an important matter to take care of in an automobile - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol can lead to idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain when compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we can handle both circumstances quite easily.

Keep in mind though that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will probably be completely wet and useless.

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.
