Local Call-Out and Roadside Repair in Somerset

Wrong fuel in your automobile in Hackness? Welcome to Wrong Fuel SoS. Phone us and enquire how we can certainly aid you to get you back on track again.

It was just before 10 pm on a Saturday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh night, it hadn't stopped raining! Brian and I were seated commenting on the weekend's rugby results, at the ready for the 6th telephone call to arrive. In due time we received the phone call from a lady on a business excursion who had pulled into the Shell filling station in Hackness and filled petrol in a diesel khaki green Ford Transit Connect lease car in error. The unfortunate lady was rather distressed apparently, saying "I can't believe I have wrecked the car! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol car I completely forgot that I was using a diesel!" We told her to relax and not to worry, plus that these things sadly happen. She managed to get the car into a safe space and, as it was just a few miles from our van, we could find her fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was removed and she could get back to the Travelodge she was staying at. Although we got extremely drenched, it was all worthwhile to see her drive off contented and a lot less concerned. Another fuel drain in Somerset well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


AdBlue In Diesel

What you should do if you may have poured AdBlue in your Diesel tank?

AdBlue is a chemical made of a blend of high-purity urea (32.5%) and ionized water (67.5%). AdBlue is certainly harmful to your vehicle's fuel system, especially in cases where you run the engine with AdBlue in the tank. As soon as the engine has been started the AdBlue is going to be injected into the fuel lines and will swiftly start to crystalise, triggering serious and expensive harm to your automobile's fuel system.

Contact us if you are a victim of AdBlue contamination. We can certainly help. We are Specialists in dealing with contaminated fuel and are able to take care of different types of AdBlue contamination.

Wrong Fuel in Car in TA9 Postcode - Hackness Misfueling

A lady had stopped on a road, Hackness having just misfueled. She was in tears and fairly troubled as she had put £60 petrol in her diesel car. When she contacted us we made an effort to cool her as well as we could, reassuring her that it would be ok. When we got to her she was not distressed any more and was pretty fascinated in watching our engineer complete the fuel drain on her new Mercedes-Benz M-Class. Later on she said: "My car is like my baby, I only just paid for it and so it especially freaked me out that I had put a whole lot of wrong fuel in it. I'm very happy that it was very easily repairable."

Wrong Fuel Assist Hackness - Wrong Fuel in Car Hackness

I'd had a wonderful afternoon cycling during my holiday and was feeling satisfied with myself the next morning as I set out to assist a new couple vacationing in Hackness. They had broken down after adding the wrong fuel in their shiny Mercedes R-Class, and they were around half an hour away. I emerged at their car and laughed to myself as I listened to the woman telling her partner off for actually being so foolish. "Exactly how could you conceivably find a way to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I attempted to tell her that this happens on a regular basis in Somerset and that it is absolutely nothing to be anxious about, but he all the same got an ear bashing by his missus. I felt genuine sympathy for the lad. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed all the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the right fuel. While watching them drive off I shouted goodbye and wondered what her indoors would ask me if perhaps I made the very same mistake... I would never ever hear the end of it!

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 VA 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.
