The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, can be a significant situation to deal with in an automobile - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel can potentially result in idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with fully, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both cases quite simply.

Take note though that so long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will likely be completely wet and ineffective.

We can easily help to re-fill your automobile in the event that you are stuck on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at your home.

Wrong Fuel in Car in DT11 Postcode - Shroton Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a great night's sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a rainy Monday and we were on my way to assist an elder lovely lady who put the wrong fuel in her diesel husband's Volvo V40 in Shroton. I'd been told she had driven away from the petrol station forecourt and pulled up on a rural road on route to see her family. I got the location punched straight into the TomTom and was with her in less than an hour. I arrived at the vehicle and extracted the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. Whilst I was doing the work she told me, "Now I'm becoming somewhat absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle working with diesel seeing that I had only acquired it a short while ago after my previous one, which I used for more than 25 years, finally died on me". I completed the job and she gifted me a toffee and said thanks a lot. What a lovely Dorset woman!

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 VA 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.
