Wrong fuel in your motor vehicle in Weekmoor? Welcome to Wrong Fuel SoS. Call us and find out just how we could help to get you on the road once more.

It was after 5 pm on a Thursday and even though we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not ceased pouring! Mark and I were seated discussing the recent footy results, waiting for the next fuel drain for the day to come in. In due time we had the call from a young lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling garage in Weekmoor and filled petrol in her diesel company's Porsche Cayenne rental. She was somewhat distressed apparently, telling me "I cannot believe that I've destroyed the car! I am so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot that I was running a diesel!" We told her to take it easy and not to fret, and that things like this sadly can happen. She managed to maneuver the car to a secure space and, since it was just a short distance away from where we were, we could get to her right away. The contaminated fuel was removed so she could get back to the hotel she was residing at. Despite the fact we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth the time to see her drive away relaxed and a lot less apprehensive. Yet another fuel drain in Somerset well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely a significant issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol may lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both situations rather easily.

Be aware that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will be totally wet and ineffective.

Waste Fuel Disposal

We have been called out to several private and business premises in Somerset to deal with draining and disposing of fuel storages.

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.
