It was after eight pm on a Wednesday and while we were promised a rainless night, it had not stopped pouring! Mark and me were relaxing there discussing the recent footy, prepared for the next fuel drain to come in. Inevitably we received a phone call from a woman on a business excursion who had arrived at the Shell filling station in Spirthill and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel faithful BMW 5 Series hire car. The unfortunate thing was fairly distressed it seemed, crying "I still cannot believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle I had forgot that I was running a diesel!" I advised her to take it easy and not to fret, and also that things like this regrettably do happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle into a secure area and, seeing as it was just a short distance away from our van, we were able to get to her right away. The bad fuel was removed so she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was lodging in. Even though we got fairly drenched, it was all worth the time to watch her drive home calm and not so worried. Another misfuel correction in Wiltshire done well in my books!

The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Spirthill (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a complete Wiltshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to re-fill your car if you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (bought at pump price) to fill up your automobile. They will be able to fix the most common issues that could come with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , or maybe flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually a significant condition to address in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol is going to bring about idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied effectively, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of than water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both circumstances pretty swiftly.

Take note that whenever the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will probably be thoroughly wet and useless.

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.
