It was after 10 pm on a Saturday and while we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not ceased raining! James and I were seated talking over the football results, at the ready for the next fuel drain to come in. Finally we got the phone call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had pulled into the Texaco petrol station in Pednor Bottom and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel stylish Mercedes-Benz SL-Class lease car in error. The poor thing was quite distressed apparently, crying "I still cannot believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" We asked her to relax and not to fret, also that these things unfortunately often happen. She managed to maneuver the car to a safe area and, seeing that it was only a few miles off from where we were, we could arrive at her fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted and she was able to return to the Travelodge she was living in. Despite the fact that we got extremely soaked, it was all worth it to watch her drive off contented and less anxious. Another job in Buckinghamshire done well in my books!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important situation to deal with in a car - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel can certainly lead to idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both circumstances pretty simply.

You should know that so long as the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one is going to be totally wet 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.
