It was just after 6 pm on a Wednesday and although we were guaranteed a dry evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Brian and I were seated there discussing the weekend's golf rankings, waiting for the next job of the day to arrive. Finally we had a phone call from a woman on a company excursion who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol station in Bridgehampton and put petrol in her diesel husband's Jaguar XK hire car. The unfortunate lady was somewhat affected apparently, telling me "I can't believe that I have messed up the car! I am so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot I was operating a diesel!" I just instructed her to settle back and not to fret, also that these things regrettably happen. She was able to move the vehicle into a protected position and, as it was just a few miles away from the office, we were able to get to her right away. The wrong fuel was removed and she could go home to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Even though we got fairly drenched, it was all worth it to watch her drive home calm and much less apprehensive. Another fuel drain in Somerset well done in my opinion!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a serious condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines.
Water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol can easily produce idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both cases very easily.
You should know that so long as the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will likely be totally wet and useless.

We've been called out to several privately owned and industrial properties in Somerset for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Bridgehampton - Fuel Rescue Bridgehampton
This really was what is called the graveyard shift. It was close to 2am and noone was about. It had been fairly quiet thus far, and Mark and I were loafing around looking through some old newspapers. It was an unusual restful time in Somerset. Actually it was indeed that relaxing that the instant the telephone eventually rang it made me start! The person on the other end stated: "I have only just completed my overnight shift and stupidly put the wrong fuel in the diesel black Hyundai Genesis". We instructed him to tell us where exactly the car was located and we hit the road, arriving in Bridgehampton only 30 minutes later. The incorrect fuel was extracted from the engine and he thanked us profusely for arriving so quickly. While we were returning home we noticed two young ladies on the side of the highway who looked like they had a flat tyre. Obviously we stopped and helped them change it, to their delight.

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:
- 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.
- 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 VA receipt.
- 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.
- 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.
