Our driver was called to a service station in Sampford Arundel when a elderly lady misfueled her metallic yellow Austin Mini Cooper S by putting unleaded in her diesel car. She was in an annoyed and perplexed state of mind but we quickly eased her mood by telling her that we would be with her within an hour to carry out the necessary work and that the car would soon be working and she would be off again. As we'd stated she was just that, but also insisted on telling us: "Your firm is incredibly service focused, I'm extremely pleased my vehicle is okay," and that she'd highly recommend us to anybody.

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly an important situation to address in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel will often trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both cases fairly expediently.

Bear in mind that as long as the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated close to a car parking bay we are able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.

Ahhh, that was a great night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 am on a warm Monday and we were en route to help an elder lovely lady after she put the wrong fuel in her diesel mate's BMW X5 in Sampford Arundel. I had been advised she had left the filling station and was stranded on a rural road en route to see her godchildren. I got the location plugged into the TomTom and was on-scene within 60 minutes. I turned up at the car and removed the contaminated fuel in the car car. While I was doing the drain she said, "I am getting relatively absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle working with diesel as I had just acquired it a week ago after my other one, which I had owned for about twenty years, inevitably died on me". I completed the drain and she gifted me a Murray mint and thanked me for my efforts. What a lovely Somerset woman!

Wrong Fuel in Car Somerset - Petrol in Diesel Car Sampford Arundel

Now I am not excessively hot for carrying out work on weekends, and a while back was the same. I'd only just departed the wife and kids following a superb roast prepared for us by the better half, and I was on the way to deal with a guy who had put the wrong petrol in his aunt's Cadillac XLR-V. He was stationed in Sampford Arundel and so I arrived on scene quickly. Just as I arrived at the rear of the car and started work he told me "Thank the Lord! I stupidly had my attention on other things and failed to perceive I've put diesel in my petrol car. Is it likely I brought on any harm by simply driving it?" I stated there probably should not be any problems and that also I'd personally get the contaminated fuel drained quickly for him. As expected I got the contaminated fuel drained from the car and put in some correct fuel, and then one more delighted customer was able to carry on with his traveling without any fuss. The guy could hardly stop thanking me, and that is what makes operating on Sundays in Somerset just a small bit less painful in my opinion!

This was the graveyard shift. It was about 3:30am and hardly anyone was about. It was fairly quiet so far, and Brian and I were loafing about reading through a couple of old papers. That was a rare tranquil hour in Somerset. It was in fact that quiet that the moment the phone ultimately rang I leaped with surprise! The voice on the opposite end explained: "I have only just finished my overnight shift and foolishly put petrol in my teal Subaru Outback". We told him to let us know where he was located and we headed out, reaching him in Sampford Arundel no more than an hour later. The wrong fuel was cleaned from the vehicle. He thanked us profusely for coming out so promptly. While we were heading back home we noticed two young ladies on the edge of the highway who looked like they had a flat. So we pulled up to change it, to their elation.

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.
