In due time we got the phone call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had arrived at the Esso filling station in Pott Shrigley and put the wrong fuel in a diesel dark red Dodge Avenger rental. She was quite troubled by the sounds of it, telling me "I can not believe that I have wrecked the car!

The 3 things you NEED to know about petrol in diesel!


Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to a vehicle parking spot we are able to gain access to the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely a serious situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel can bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out than water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both cases quite easily.

Keep in mind that so long as the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

I enjoyed a great day golfing during the weekend and was feeling cheerful with myself the following day as I was on the way to help a young couple who were away in Pott Shrigley. They'd pulled over after inserting petrol into their expensive Mazda B-Series Plus, and were around half an hour's travel away. I turned up at their location and laughed to myself as I listened to the wife berating her husband for turning out to be so stupid. "Precisely how could you possibly be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I attempted to explain that this situation takes place everyday in Cheshire and that it's truly nothing to get worried about, nevertheless he in spite of everything got an earful by his missus. Poor lad. Anyhow, I cleaned up and removed all the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and gave them some appropriate fuel. Watching while they drove away I mouthed good-bye and thought about what her indoors would ask me in the event that I did the same thing... I'd personally never live it down!

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.
