The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Lilyhurst (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We perform a comprehensive Shropshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can get out to fill up your automobile if you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our engineers can attend with 10-20 litres of the correct fuel (acquired at pump price) and refill your vehicle. They are also able to handle the usual problems that could go with running out of fuel - like airlocks, vehicle not starting, or even flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a serious issue to address in a vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel tank can easily lead to idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain when compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both cases fairly swiftly.

Remember that in the event that the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and unusable.

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.
