The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually a significant condition to deal with in a vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in fuel tank can easily bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both situations quite swiftly.

Keep in mind though that any time the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will likely be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Hazelwood

Now I'm not ever so interested in doing the job on weekends, and 2 weeks ago was no different. I'd just departed the wife and kids filled with a lovely Sunday roast cooked for me by the wife, and I was off to assist a fellow who filled the wrong petrol in his well worn Mercedes Sprinter. He was only in Hazelwood thus it wouldn't be long before I arrived with him. Just as I pulled up at the rear of the car and got busy draining he told me "Praise the Almighty! I foolishly had my thoughts on other things and failed to grasp that I have put diesel in my petrol car. Have I caused some damage simply by starting it?" I revealed truth be told there should not be any problems and also that I would personally get the fuel drained right away. Obviously I got the fuel drained from the vehicle and filled it with some appropriate fuel, and thus one more pleased motorist had the ability to continue on his trip without the bother. He did not stop thanking me, and this can make earning a living on weekends in Derbyshire just a little bit easier in my opinion!

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:

    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
    • Won’t start – or keeps stalling.

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.
