It was just after 8 pm on a Friday and although we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped pouring! Brian and I were seated there talking about the golf rankings, waiting for the 6th call to come in. Finally we got a phone call from a woman on a company expedition who had gone to the Esso petrol station in Prees Green and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel classic Mercedes S-Class lease car. The poor thing was quite agitated apparently, crying "I still cannot believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember I was using a diesel!" I just instructed her to calm down and not to fret, plus that things like this regrettably can happen. She was able to maneuver the car into a safe position and, seeing as it was just a few minutes off from us, we were able to arrive at the customer without delay. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could go home to the Travelodge she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got pretty drenched, it was all worth the time to watch her drive home calm and less apprehensive. A fuel drain in Shropshire well done in my mind!

The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Waste Fuel Removal

Got an old fuel reservoir sitting at the back of your garden full of out of date, unusable or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to numerous private and industrial properties in Shropshire to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.

Regardless of whether the fuel storage is an underground reservoir, a portable bowser, or even several containers in a shed, provided that we are able to reach it, we are able to drain it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be a serious issue to take care of in an automobile - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in fuel tank will often lead to idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both circumstances rather easily.

You should know that if the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Prees Green

Now I'm not very interested in running on weekends, and a week ago was the same. I'd just departed the family after having a superb dinner made for us by the better half, and I was off to assist a man who had put the incorrect petrol in his bright yellow Chevrolet Cavalier. He was stationed in Prees Green thus it wasn't long before I arrived with him. As I pulled up behind the car and stepped out he said to me "Thank the Almighty! I stupidly had my attention on other things and didn't ascertain I have put diesel in my petrol car. I need to know if I inflicted any kind of harm through driving it?" I revealed that generally there probably should not be harm and also that I would personally remove the wrong fuel right away for him. Needless to say I drained the wrong fuel from the vehicle and put in the correct fuel, and so one more satisfied customer had the ability to carry on with his trip without any subsequent bother. He did not stop thanking me, and that is actually what tends to make earning a living on weekends in Shropshire that little bit easier for me!

A customer from Prees Green with a full car of little ones in her diesel metallic silver Renault Kangoo had filled her vehicle with £40 of petrol at the Co Op station. She phoned us weeping and very upset as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel previously and did not know what would happen to her vehicle in doing so. We assured her that the car should be okay and that she would be back on the road quickly. When we got there she was visible distressed but as our engineer began work on the fuel drain she calmed down because she recognised that help was at hand and her car wasn't unfixable. She quickly brightened up and was up and running saying, "I really can't believe my misfortune putting the wrong fuel in my car! Particularly with the little ones on board."

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.
