The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a significant situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel will produce idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both circumstances pretty easily.

Keep in mind though that whenever the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will probably be totally wet and unusable.

We have been called out to a number of private and industrial premises in County Durham for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages.

Wrong Fuel in Car County Durham - Petrol in Diesel Car Ireshopeburn

I am certainly not overly interested in running weekends, and the other day was the same. I'd just come away from home after a tasty dinner prepared for me by the better half, and I was en route to assist a fellow because he put the wrong fuel in his metallic silver Volvo V90. He was stationed in Ireshopeburn and so I was with him quickly. Just as I pulled up at the car and got out he said to me "Thank God! I stupidly had my thoughts on something else and did not perceive I had put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Is it possible I brought on any kind of damage by running it?" I revealed that truth be told there should not be damage and that also I would personally get the fuel drained right away. Naturally I got the contaminated fuel drained from the vehicle and filled up with the appropriate fuel, and so yet another delighted motorist had the ability to continue on their traveling with no difficulty. He couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and this is what makes operating on weekends in County Durham just that small bit easier for me!

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.
