It was just before eight pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry day, it hadn't ceased raining! Ryan and I were sitting there talking over the recent football results, waiting for the seventh call that day to arrive. Before long we received a call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had arrived at the Tesco filling station in Milden and put petrol in her diesel brother's Saab 9-3 hire car. She was pretty troubled by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply cannot believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol car that I totally didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I advised her to calm down and not to worry, and also that these things sadly can happen. She had managed to get the car to a secure area and, because it was just a few miles from our van, we were able to arrive at the customer rather quickly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was living at. Despite the fact we got really wet, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive home relaxed and a lot less stressed. Yet another fuel drain in Suffolk done well in my books!

The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a serious condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel will result in idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both situations pretty simply.

Be aware however that as long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one will probably be completely wet and useless.

Run Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Milden (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We operate a full Suffolk Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to fill up the car if you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or possibly even at your home. Our engineers can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and refill your car. They are also able to fix the standard troubles that may come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.


Wrong Fuel in Car in IP7 Postcode - Milden Misfueling

Just had a great night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 am on a sunny Bank Holiday Monday and I was en route to help an old lady who had put petrol in her diesel mint condition Lexus in Milden. She told us that she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and broken down in a country road on the way to pay a visit to her family. I got her location punched straight into the Satnav and was with her inside an hour. I got to the vehicle and extracted the wrong fuel in the car car. Whilst I was doing the drain she explained, "I have been becoming rather absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the car using diesel seeing that I'd only bought it a short while ago when my former car, which I'd used for more than thirty years, inevitably broke down". I got the drain completed and she offered me a toffee and said thank you. Such a lovely Suffolk woman!

Wrong Fuel in Car Suffolk - Petrol in Diesel Car Milden

Now I'm not necessarily so inclined to carrying out work weekends, and last week was the same. I had just left the wife and kids after a superb dinner cooked for me by the better half, and I was on the way to deal with a gentleman because he filled the wrong fuel in his metallic yellow Volkswagen Beetle. He was situated in Milden therefore I was on scene almost immediately. As I arrived at the rear of the car and stepped out he said to me "Praise the Almighty! I foolishly had my concentration on other considerations and did not ascertain I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I inflicted damage by driving it?" I stated there shouldn't be damage and that also I would personally get the wrong fuel drained quickly for him. Obviously I removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle and filled it with the suitable fuel, and so yet another satisfied client was able to continue on his ride without bother. He did not stop thanking me, and that is exactly what makes operating on Sundays in Suffolk a tiny bit less painful in my opinion!

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.
