It was just after 6 pm on a Tuesday and though we were assured a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped raining! James and I were relaxing discussing the recent football results, prepared for the seventh job that day to arrive. In due time we had the call from a woman on a business trip who had pulled into the Esso filling station in Cherry Hinton and filled petrol in her diesel mate's Ford Fusion rental. She was rather agitated by the sounds of it, saying "I can't believe I have wrecked the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to relax and not to fret, and that things like this regrettably happen. She had managed to maneuver the car to a secure area and, since it was just a short distance away from where we were, we were able to get to the woman swiftly. The incorrect fuel was drained so she could go home to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Although we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worthwhile to see her drive away contented and a lot less worried. Another fuel drain in Cambridgeshire well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a serious issue to deal with in a car - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel will likely result in idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both cases pretty simply.

Bear in mind though that if ever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will likely be totally wet and useless.

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.
