It was after 10 pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and me were resting talking over the weekend's sports, waiting around for the 6th job for the day to arrive. Eventually we received a phone call from a woman on a business trip who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling garage in Lower Wick and put the wrong fuel in her diesel navy blue Land Rover Discovery rental car in error. She was somewhat irritated it seemed, saying "I still cannot believe that I've wrecked the car! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I totally forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that such things happen. She was able to get the car to a protected space and, because it was just a short distance from where we were, we could arrive at the customer rather quickly. The wrong fuel was removed so she could return to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Although we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth it seeing her drive home relaxed and not so worried. Yet another misfuel correction in Worcestershire done well in my opinion!

The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually a serious matter to handle in a vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your fuel tank may trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both situations pretty swiftly.

Be aware that if the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Wrong Fuel Assist Lower Wick - Wrong Fuel in Car Lower Wick

I had a perfect day hiking during my holiday and felt pleased with myself the next day as I headed out to aid a new couple on holiday in Lower Wick. They had pulled over after adding the wrong fuel in their canary yellow Kia Spectra5, and the car was around an hour away. I got there at their car and smiled while I listened to the wife chastising her hubby for turning out to be so confused. "Exactly how could you conceivably manage to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I attempted to clarify that this occurs all the time in Worcestershire and that it is nothing to worry about, however he all the same had an ear bashing by his wife. Unfortunate lad. In any case, I extracted the wrong fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. While watching them drive off I waved so long and wondered what her indoors would say to me if ever I did the very same thing... I'd never live it down!

A woman working in Lower Wick called us shortly after she tried to get her misfueled car to the office. She had filled petrol in her diesel rugged Toyota Prius and, like many prior to her, assumed that she would be able to simply fill the tank with diesel and it would be okay. The car was spluttering and then it stopped when she came to the entrance of her work. We soon started on the fuel drain following her call and had it fixed in one hour whilst she was working. She came out soon after and thanked us saying, "I'm really pleased you sorted my vehicle."

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.
