The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly an important issue to take care of in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel can potentially bring about idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both circumstances very easily.

Take note however that if ever the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will probably be totally wet and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car in DE7 Postcode - New Stanton Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a good night of sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a rainy Saturday and we were en route to help an older lovely lady who put petrol in her diesel mustard yellow Toyota FJ Cruiser in New Stanton. I'd been advised she had driven away from the filling station and pulled up in a country lane along the way to see her godchildren. I punched the location in the Satnav and was with her in less than 60 minutes. I arrived at the car and removed the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. As I was doing it she said to me, "I have been becoming quite absent-minded in my senior years and didn't remember about the car using diesel because I had only just got it a couple of days back because my previous one, which I owned for over 25 years, finally died on me". I completed the job and she presented me a Murray mint and said thanks. Such a delightful Derbyshire lady!

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.
