It was close to 9 pm on a Thursday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless day, it hadn't stopped pouring! Mark and me were sitting there commenting on the weekend's tennis results, waiting around for the 8th call for the day to come in. Eventually we received the call from a lady on a company trip who had gone to the BP petrol garage in Wadshelf and filled petrol in her diesel red Cadillac Sixty Special lease car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was pretty agitated apparently, saying "I cannot believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car that I had didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I told her to calm down and not to fret, also that these things regrettably happen. She managed to move the vehicle into a protected spot and, because it was no more than a few miles away from where we were, we were able to get to the customer swiftly. The bad fuel was drained so she was able to go home to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Despite the fact we got very wet, it was all worth it to see her drive away relaxed and less stressed. Yet another fuel drain in Derbyshire done well in my books!

The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be an important situation to take care of in a car - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel is going to cause idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both cases quite swiftly.

Remember though that so long as the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one is going to be totally wet and useless.

Wrong Fuel in Car in S42 Postcode - Wadshelf Misfueling

Just had a fantastic night of sleep! It was 7:30 on a gloomy Tuesday and I was on my way to assist an old woman who put petrol in her diesel canary yellow Subaru Outback in Wadshelf. I had been advised she had left the filling station and pulled up along a country lane en route to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I plugged her location into the TomTom and arrived inside an hour. I turned up at the location and extracted the wrong fuel out of the car. While I was doing the drain she explained, "I'm becoming fairly absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle working with diesel seeing that I'd just got it a few days back right after my other car, which I owned for in excess of 25 years, inevitably died on me". I got the drain done and she presented me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. Such a precious Derbyshire woman!

I had a wonderful day fishing on the weekend and felt cheerful with myself the next morning as I was en route to aid a young couple who were vacationing in Wadshelf. They pulled over after adding the wrong fuel into their maroon Renault Master, and the car was around an hour away. I showed up at their position and smiled to myself as I heard to the gal telling her spouse off for being so confused. "Exactly how could you actually find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she said to him. I tried to clarify that this problem takes place everyday in Derbyshire and that it is absolutely nothing to get worried about, but he all the same had his ear bent by his better half. Unlucky lad. Anyway, I drained the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and filled it up with the correct fuel. As they drove away I mouthed goodbye and pondered on what my wife would say to me if ever I did the very same thing... I would never ever hear the end of it!

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.
