The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious issue to address in a motor vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel is likely to produce idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of correctly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both situations quite expediently.

Be aware that so long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car in DH7 Postcode - Brandon Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a great night's sleep! 7:00 on a sunny Monday and we were on my way to help an elder woman who put the wrong fuel in her diesel rugged Mitsubishi Eclipse in Brandon. I'd been informed she had left the petrol station forecourt and was pulled up on a rural road on the way to see her family. I plugged her location straight into the Satnav and arrived in less than an hour or so. I got to the location and drained the wrong fuel out of the car. As I was doing it she explained, "I have been getting fairly absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle using diesel since I'd only just acquired it a couple of days back right after my former car, which I'd owned for over twenty years, inevitably stopped working". I got the drain completed and she presented me a Murray mint and said thanks. Such a delightful County Durham lady!

Thus, in the event that you've topped up your petrol car with the wrong fuel, or the wrong fuel in your diesel motor vehicle wherever in County Durham, contact us now. Our professional technicians are all set for your call.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Brandon - Fuel Rescue Brandon

A customer driving in Brandon called us as soon as she managed to get her misfueled vehicle to the office. She had filled petrol in her diesel white Kia Rio5 and, like many people prior to her, assumed that she could basically fill the car with diesel and it would run okay. The engine was spluttering and then it stopped when she came to the the front of her office. We quickly started on the fuel drain after she called and had it sorted within an hour or so while she was working. She came outside later on and thanked us stating, "I'm really delighted you repaired my car."

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.
