It was around seven pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless afternoon, it had not given up on raining! James and me were resting there discussing the weekend's golf, waiting around for the 6th call that day to arrive. Eventually we had the phone call from a lady on a company expedition who had gone to the Shell petrol station in Bewdley and put the wrong fuel in her diesel winter grey Mercedes-Benz Sprinter rental car in error. The unfortunate thing was very distressed it seemed, stating "I just can't believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to settle back and not to be concerned, also that such things regrettably do happen. She had managed to move the vehicle to a safe space and, because it was just a few miles from the office, we could find the woman without delay. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she could go home to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Although we got very drenched, it was all worth it to watch her drive home contented and not so worried. Yet another job in Worcestershire done well in my mind!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally a serious issue to take care of in an automobile - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your fuel will likely result in idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with effectively, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both cases pretty quickly.

Be aware that so long as the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one is going to be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close enough to a motor vehicle parking bay we can gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.

Wrong Fuel Assist Bewdley - Wrong Fuel in Car Bewdley

I had appreciated a wonderful evening cycling on my holiday and felt contented with myself the next day as I headed out to aid a young couple who were vacationing in Bewdley. They broken down after filling diesel in their deep grey Cadillac Catera, and the car was around half an hour's travel away. I showed up at their position and laughed to myself while I listened to the gal chastising her spouse for turning out to be so stupid. "How could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I tried to tell her that this situation happens constantly in Worcestershire and that it's actually nothing to get worried about, and yet he yet still had an ear bashing by his better half. Unlucky guy. At any rate, I extracted all of the polluted fuel, flushed the motor and gave them some proper fuel. While watching them drive off I waved goodbye and wondered what her indoors would tell me if I did the exact same thing... I would never ever live it down!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Bewdley

I'm not necessarily excessively keen on working on Sundays, and a couple weeks ago was the same. I had only just departed home after eating a lovely roast cooked for us by the better half, and I was on the way to deal with a fellow who put the incorrect petrol in his navy blue MINI Countryman. He was only in Bewdley and so I arrived on scene 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 stuff and did not realise I have put diesel in my petrol car. I need to know if I caused harm by simply driving it?" I explained there should not be any harm and also that I'd personally get the wrong fuel drained at once. As expected I removed the contaminated fuel from the vehicle and filled up with some suitable fuel, and then another contented client was able to carry on with their trip without any bother. The guy could hardly stop thanking me, and this is actually what can make earning a living on weekends in Worcestershire that little easier to 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.
