It was about eight pm on a Monday and even though we were assured a dry day, it had not ceased pouring! Paul and I were resting discussing the weekend's rugby rankings, prepared for the seventh call to arrive. Eventually we received a call from a woman on a company trip who had pulled into the Texaco petrol garage in Blackbrook and put the wrong fuel in her diesel mom's Isuzu i-370 lease car in error. The poor thing was fairly troubled by the sounds of it, telling me "I just can't believe I have wrecked the car! I am so familiar with filling my petrol car that I totally did not remember that I was operating a diesel!" We asked her to settle back and not to worry, plus that these things unfortunately do happen. She had managed to maneuver the car to a safe space and, since it was no more than a few minutes away from the office, we were able to get to the customer right away. The incorrect fuel was drained so she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Even though we got extremely soaked, it was all worth the effort to see her drive off relaxed and a lot less anxious. Another fuel drain in Surrey done well in my opinion!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Run Out of Fuel Support

Run out of fuel in Blackbrook (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We run a complete Surrey Out of Fuel Service. We're able to get out to re-fill the car in cases where you are having difficulty on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or possibly even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (at pump prices) and fill up your automobile. They will deal with the typical issues which might come with running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe flat batteries as a result of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious situation to deal with in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the fuel tank can easily contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed correctly, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both circumstances quite quickly.

Keep in mind that whenever the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will likely be totally wet and ineffective.

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.
