It was just before six pm on a Wednesday and though we were assured a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped pouring! Brian and me were resting going over the recent golf, ready for the next telephone call for the day to come in. Eventually we got a call from a girl on a company trip who had gone to the Tesco petrol station in Stanley and put petrol in a diesel partner's Mercedes SLK55 AMG rental car by mistake. She was fairly agitated it seemed, stating "I just can't believe that I have wrecked the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol car I totally did not remember I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to calm down and not to be concerned, plus that these things regrettably often happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a protected space and, as it was no more than a few miles off from us, we could reach the woman without delay. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she was able to get back to the motel she was residing at. Even though we got really drenched, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away contented and a lot less apprehensive. Yet another fuel drain in Shropshire well done in my books!

The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Stanley (out of gas - as an American might say)? We perform a complete Shropshire Out of Fuel Service. We can come to fill up the car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our specialists can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) to refill your vehicle. They are also able to deal with any of the most common troubles which could accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually a significant situation to take care of in a car - especially in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank can certainly trigger idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both circumstances very simply.

Take note though that if the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will probably be totally water-logged and ineffective.

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.
