It was before 6 pm on a Tuesday and even though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped raining! Dan and I were seated there commenting on the weekend's sports results, waiting around for the 8th job for the day to come in. Finally we received the call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling garage in Rostherne and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel dark red Ford hire car by mistake. The poor thing was fairly irritated apparently, telling me "I still can't believe that I've ruined the car! I'm so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I totally forgot I was running a diesel!" We instructed her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that such things unfortunately do happen. She was able to maneuver the car into a protected space and, as it was no more than a short distance off from our van, we were able to get to her almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could return to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Despite the fact we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive off relaxed and much less apprehensive. One more fuel drain in Cheshire well done in my books!

The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question an important situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol will cause idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both circumstances quite quickly.

Take note however that in the event that the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Wrong Fuel in Car in WA16 Postcode - Rostherne Misfueling

What a fantastic night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 am on a sunny Bank Holiday Monday and we were on my way to assist an older sweetheart after she put petrol in her diesel black Subaru Outback Sport in Rostherne. I'd been told she had driven away from the filling station and pulled up on a country lane on route to see her grandchildren. I plugged her location into the Satnav and was with her inside 60 minutes. I reached the location and drained the wrong fuel from the car. Whilst I was doing the drain she said to me, "I have been getting somewhat forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the car working with diesel as I'd only bought it a short while back when my other car, which I owned for in excess of twenty five years, finally died on me". I got the job done and she offered me a peppermint and thanked me for my work. Such a delightful Cheshire woman!

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.
