It was just after five pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry evening, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Paul and I were resting discussing the recent football results, waiting around for the 8th job that day to arrive. Before long we received a call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had arrived at the Shell petrol station in Sutton and put the wrong fuel in her diesel metallic silver Land Rover Defender lease car in error. The poor lady was somewhat distressed it seemed, telling me "I cannot believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol car I totally didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" We advised her to take it easy and not to fret, and also that these things unfortunately happen. She was able to get the car into a protected area and, seeing that it was only a few miles away from our van, we were able to get to the woman fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted and she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Even though we got very soaked, it was all rewarding seeing her drive off satisfied and less concerned. Yet another job in Suffolk done well in my books!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant situation to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol can potentially result in idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed fully, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we can take care of both cases quite swiftly.

Bear in mind however that whenever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will be totally water-logged and useless.

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel tank sitting at the rear of your premises with unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and industrial premises in Suffolk for the purpose of removing and recycling fuel storages.

Wrong Fuel Assist Sutton - Wrong Fuel in Car Sutton

I had a great day golfing during my off day and was feeling satisfied the next day as I set off to aid a young couple away in Sutton. They stopped after filling petrol into their navy blue Renault Clio, and the car was roughly an hour's travel away. I got there at their position and smirked to myself as I heard to the girl berating her partner for being so stupid. "Precisely how could you actually manage to fill the car up with the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I wanted to clarify that this happens on daily basis in Suffolk and that it's absolutely nothing to get worried about, even so he in spite of everything had an earful by his missus. I felt sorry for the chap. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed all the wrong fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave them some proper fuel. While watching them drive away I mouthed so long and considered what my wife would do to me if ever I made the very same mistake... I'd personally never ever hear the end of it!

Wrong Fuel in Car Suffolk - Petrol in Diesel Car Sutton

A teen who had only got his licence had misfueled his boss' Porsche 911 by getting petrol in the diesel at the filling station near Sutton. He said, "This is just the third time I have fueled my car from the time when I got it and I don't know what to do." He was also anxious as his step father had just got him the car. He found us on the web and so called us instantly, afraid about what he needed to do.

A young lady from Sutton with a full car of little ones in her diesel daughter's Mercedes-Benz Sprinter had filled her vehicle with £42 of petrol at the Tesco station. She phoned us weeping and really worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel car and didn't know what would happen to her car in doing so. We told her that the vehicle should be fine and that she would be back up and running soon. When we arrived she was still upset but while our technician began work on the fuel drain she simmered down since she recognised that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't wrecked. She soon enough cheered up and was on the road again saying, "I can't believe my misfortune putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Specifically with the children on board."

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.
