It was before five pm on a Saturday and even though we were promised a dry night, it had not stopped raining! Paul and I were relaxing there talking about the footy rankings, at the ready for the sixth job to come in. In due time we had the call from a lady on a business excursion who had gone to the Esso petrol garage in Benfieldside and put petrol in her diesel brother's Dodge Avenger rental car. She was rather distressed it seemed, telling me "I simply cannot believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I had forgot that I was using a diesel!"

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question an important issue to deal with in a car - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank can certainly cause idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both cases rather swiftly.

Be aware however that if ever the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and ineffective.

This really was what is called the graveyard shift. It was roughly 3 in the morning and noone was around. It had become pretty uneventful up to now, and me and Ryan were loafing around browsing a number of old magazines. This was a rare quiet hour in County Durham. Actually it was so quiet that the instant the telephone finally rang I jumped! The voice explained: "I have completed my overnight shift and foolishly filled the wrong fuel in my mom's Range Rover Evoque in error". We asked him to tell us where he was and we headed out, getting to him in Benfieldside half an hour later. The fuel was extracted from the vehicle. He said thank you for coming so quickly. While we were coming back to the depot we found two young women on the side of the highway who looked like they had a puncture. Accordingly we got out to help them change it, to their delight.

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 VA 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.
