It was about five pm on a Thursday and even though we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it had not ceased pouring! Brian and me were resting there discussing the recent golf rankings, prepared for the seventh fuel drain for the day to arrive. Eventually we got a phone call from a young lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Tesco filling garage in Tutts Clump and filled petrol in a diesel burgundy red Subaru Outback rental in error. She was very distressed apparently, telling me "I simply cannot believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I totally forgot that I was using a diesel!" We advised her to take it easy and not to worry, and that such things sadly happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a safe space and, since it was just a short distance away from us, we could arrive at her without delay. The contaminated fuel was removed and she could go home to the Travelodge she was staying at. Even though we got really soaked, it was all rewarding seeing her drive off calm and a lot less anxious. Yet another fuel drain in Berkshire done well in my mind!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a serious matter to deal with in a car - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in fuel can certainly trigger idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both cases very easily.

Bear in mind though that in the event that the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

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.
