It was around six pm on a Friday and though we were assured a rainless afternoon, it hadn't ceased raining! Dan and I were relaxing there commenting on the rugby, ready for the 8th telephone call to arrive. Inevitably we received a phone call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had arrived at the BP filling garage in Lower Withington and put the wrong fuel in a diesel cream Range Rover Sport hire car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was fairly distressed apparently, stating "I can't believe I have destroyed the car! I'm just so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot I was driving a diesel!" I just told her to take it easy and not to worry, also that things like this unfortunately often happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a safe area and, since it was no more than a few minutes from the office, we were able to reach the woman right away. The bad fuel was drained and she could get back to the motel she was lodging in. Although we got fairly wet, it was all rewarding to watch her drive off contented and less apprehensive. One more fuel drain in Cheshire well done in my mind!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious condition to address in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel is going to result in idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both circumstances fairly swiftly.

Be aware though that if the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will likely be completely water-logged 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.
