It was close to 6 pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and me were sitting going over the recent footy results, at the ready for the next job of the day to come in. Eventually we had a call from a woman on a business expedition who had arrived at the Texaco filling garage in Aldershawe and put petrol in her diesel canary yellow Jaguar S-Type lease car in error. She was quite irritated by the sounds of it, crying "I simply cannot believe I've messed up the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I had forgot that I was running a diesel!" We told her to relax and not to be concerned, also that these things unfortunately often happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle into a secure space and, seeing that it was no more than a short distance off from us, we could arrive at the woman rather quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted and she could go home to the hotel she was living in. Even though we got very drenched, it was all worthwhile to watch her drive away satisfied and less apprehensive. One more misfuel correction in Staffordshire well done in my books!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Run Out of Fuel Assistance

Out of fuel in Aldershawe (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a complete Staffordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to re-fill your vehicle any time you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (acquired at pump price) to fill your automobile. They will fix the standard problems that may go along with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle unable to restart, or maybe flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question a significant situation to address in a car - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel will often result in idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both situations rather easily.

Be aware that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

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 VAT 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.
