It was before 10 pm on a Wednesday and while we were assured a dry night, it had not stopped pouring! James and I were resting going over the weekend's rugby results, waiting for the 6th telephone call for the day to come in. Eventually we had the call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol garage in Small Dole and filled petrol in a diesel compact BMW M rental. The unfortunate lady was fairly irritated apparently, saying "I still cannot believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling my petrol car I totally did not remember that I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to fret, and that such things can happen. She managed to maneuver the car to a safe area and, seeing that it was just a short distance from us, we were able to get to the lady fairly quickly. The bad fuel was removed so she could return to the Travelodge she was living in. Although we got very soaked, it was all worth the time to watch her drive home calm and much less stressed. A misfuel correction in West Sussex well done in my books!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel reservoir sitting in the rear of your premises full of unwanted and old, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to help you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous private and business properties in West Sussex for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to extract and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.

Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or even some containers in a garage, as long as we are able to reach it, we could certainly drain it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a significant issue to deal with in an automobile - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel can certainly produce idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not addressed effectively, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain than water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both circumstances pretty easily.

Keep in mind however that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will probably be completely water-logged and useless.

Now I'm not very inclined to running on weekends, and last week was the same. I had only just departed the wife and kids filled with a lovely roast cooked for us by the better half, and I was off to assist a man who had filled the wrong fuel in his beautiful Mitsubishi Expo. He was stationed in Small Dole thus I arrived on scene very quickly. As I drove up behind the vehicle and stepped out he explained to me "Thank the Lord! I incredibly had my mind on other considerations and didn't perceive I had put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Is it possible I inflicted problems because of driving it?" I stated that there probably should not be any kind of problems and also I'd get the fuel drained quickly. Obviously I got the contaminated fuel drained from the vehicle and put in the correct fuel, and another pleased customer was able to continue on their trip without the bother. He did not stop thanking me, and this is exactly what tends to make earning a living on weekends in West Sussex just a little bit easier for me!

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.
