It was just after five pm on a Monday and though we were assured a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and I were seated talking over the sports rankings, waiting around for the seventh telephone call for the day to arrive. Eventually we received the call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had gone to the Tesco filling garage in Sandford Hill and filled petrol in a diesel compact Range Rover lease car by mistake. She was rather agitated apparently, saying "I can't believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I am just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot I was operating a diesel!" I asked her to calm down and not to worry, also that these things regrettably happen. She was able to maneuver the car into a protected spot and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes off from the office, we could arrive at her almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Although we got really drenched, it was all rewarding to watch her drive home contented and not so stressed. Another fuel drain in Staffordshire done well in my opinion!

The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel reservoir at the back of your premises full of unwanted and old, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to many domestic and business properties in Staffordshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to be able to extract and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or even some containers in an outbuilding, if we can access it, we can empty it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel will cause idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with fully, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both cases pretty swiftly.

Be aware though that if the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Wrong Fuel Assist Sandford Hill - Wrong Fuel in Car Sandford Hill

I had a perfect afternoon cycling during the weekend and was feeling cheerful with myself the next morning as I set out to aid a young family who were vacationing in Sandford Hill. They pulled over after putting the wrong fuel in their buff Subaru Outback, and were roughly an hour away. I showed up at their car and smiled while I listened to the woman berating her hubby for actually being so stupid. "Exactly how could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I wanted to clarify that this happens on daily basis in Staffordshire and that it's in reality nothing to worry about, even so he all the same had an earful. Poor lad. Anyway, I drained the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave it some correct fuel. Watching them drive away I waved good-bye and pondered on what her indoors would say to me if ever I made the very same error... I'd never ever live it down!

A young lady working in Sandford Hill phoned us as soon as she had tried to get her wrong fueled automobile to work. She had put unleaded in her diesel sombre grey Jeep Commander and, like plenty prior to her, assumed that she could basically fill the vehicle with diesel and it would be no problem. The car was spluttering and then it died when she got to the entrance of her office. We promptly went to work on the fuel drain following her call and got it resolved inside 60 minutes whilst she was working. She came out soon after and thanked us saying, "I'm very relieved you sorted my car."

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.
