The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually a serious matter to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the fuel will likely produce idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both cases quite swiftly.

Remember however that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will probably be totally wet and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car in S32 Postcode - Eyam Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a good night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 am on a warm Sunday and we were off to help an older sweetheart who had put petrol in her diesel elegant Mazda MX-6 in Eyam. I had been told she had left the filling station and was broken down in a backwater road along the way to see her godchildren. I got the location punched in the TomTom and was with her within an hour. I turned up at the vehicle and extracted the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. As I was doing it she said, "I am getting somewhat forgetful in my old age and forgot about the car taking diesel because I had just got it several days ago because my former one, which I had used for over 25 years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I got the drain done and she gave me a Murray mint and thanked me for my hard work. What a precious Derbyshire lady!

They had stopped after inserting petrol into their well worn Chrysler PT Cruiser, and they were roughly half an hour away. I emerged at their location and smirked as I heard to the wife telling her hubby off for turning out to be so confused.

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.
