The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Run Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Hope (out of gas - as the Americans might say)? We run a comprehensive Staffordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can come to refill your vehicle any time you are having difficulty on a motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or even at home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump price) and fill the car. They are also able to fix any of the typical troubles that could accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, as well as flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a serious condition to deal with in a car - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol will often trigger idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove in comparison with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both situations quite quickly.

Bear in mind though that so long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will likely be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Ahhh, that was a fantastic night's sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a gloomy Saturday and we were off to help an old lady who put petrol in her diesel Ferarri red Volvo S80 in Hope. I had been told she drove away from the filling station and was broken down on a rural road on route to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I got her location punched in the TomTom and was on-scene inside 60 minutes. I turned up at the car and extracted the wrong fuel from the car. While I was doing the drain she explained, "I have been becoming rather forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle using diesel as I had only just acquired it a couple of days back because my other car, which I had used for in excess of 30 years, eventually stopped working". I got the drain completed and she offered me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. Such a lovely Staffordshire woman!

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.
