The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important condition to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel can produce idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both situations fairly easily.

Be aware however that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

This really was an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was about sunrise and nobody was about. It was rather dead so far, and me and John were sitting around looking through a couple of old papers. It was a rare peaceful moment in Derbyshire. It was that relaxing that the instant the phone inevitably rang I leaped! The motorist explained: "I have only just finished my night shift and foolishly put petrol in my cobalt blue Nissan Maxima". We told him to let us know where he was and we headed out, reaching him in Spondon under an hour or so later. The wrong fuel was removed from the motor. He said many thanks for coming so quickly. While we were returning to the depot we found two girls at the edge of the road who looked like they had a flat. Accordingly we pulled up and helped them change it, much to their delight.

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.

  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.
