It was just before 9 pm on a Monday and though we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Paul and I were relaxing there talking about the golf, waiting around for the sixth job that day to come in. In due time we had a phone call from a young lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the BP petrol station in Sampford Brett and put petrol in her diesel khaki green Citron C4 lease car in error. She was somewhat distressed by the sounds of it, saying "I simply can't believe I have destroyed the car! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot that I was running a diesel!" We advised her to calm down and not to worry, plus that these things sadly can happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle into a protected space and, as it was no more than a few minutes from our van, we were able to reach the lady without delay. The wrong fuel was extracted and she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was living in. Although we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away calm and a lot less worried. A job in Somerset well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely an important situation to handle in an automobile - especially in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel tank is going to trigger idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain than water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both circumstances fairly expediently.

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

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel reservoir sitting in the rear of the garden containing unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous private and commercial premises in Somerset to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.

Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even a number of containers in a storage shed, provided that we can get to it, we are able to empty 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.
