The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Run out of fuel in Stanmore (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a complete Shropshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can help to refill your vehicle in the event that you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our technicians can come out to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) to fill up your car. They will fix the normal problems that may come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be an important issue to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel will result in idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both cases very expediently.

You should know though that in the event that the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one is going to be thoroughly wet and useless.


Wrong Fuel in Car in WV15 Postcode - Stanmore Misfueling

What a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 am on a bright Tuesday and I was off to help an elder sweetheart after she put contaminated fuel in her diesel mint green Peugeot 405 in Stanmore. I'd been advised she had driven away from the filling station forecourt and was pulled up along a backwater lane on route to visit her family. I punched the location straight into the Satnav and arrived in less than an hour or so. I arrived at the car and extracted the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. While I was doing the drain she told me, "Now I'm getting fairly forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle taking diesel because I had only just purchased it a week ago right after my old one, which I'd owned for in excess of thirty years, eventually stopped working". I finished the drain and she offered me a Murray mint and said thanks a lot. Such a delightful Shropshire lady!

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.
