The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be a serious condition to address in a vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel may well produce idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out when compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both cases pretty quickly.

Be aware however that any time the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will be completely wet and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Bridgehill - Fuel Rescue Bridgehill

This was most definitely what is called the night shift. It was about 2:30 in the morning and almost noone was about. It had been quite dead up to now, and Ryan and I were sitting around reading through several old newspapers. This was an unusual tranquil time in County Durham. Actually it was in fact that tranquil that the moment my mobile rang I leaped with surprise! The voice on the phone told me: "I have ended my evening shift and foolishly put petrol in my diesel well worn BMW X6 by mistake". I asked him to let us know where he was and we headed out, arriving in Bridgehill only an hour later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned from the engine. He thanked us for getting there so fast. As we were going back home we found two girls at the side of the highway who seemed to have a puncture. Accordingly we pulled over to help them change it, much to their elation.

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.
