It was about ten pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh day, it had not stopped pouring! Dan and I were resting commenting on the recent rugby results, waiting around for the next call for the day to come in. Before long we had the call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had arrived at the Esso filling station in Tarrant Monkton and filled petrol in her diesel cobalt blue Mitsubishi Lancer rental car by mistake. She was fairly affected apparently, saying "I simply cannot believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I am so used to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot I was using a diesel!" I asked her to relax and not to be concerned, also that these things regrettably often happen. She had managed to get the car into a safe space and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes off from where we were, we could reach the lady almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she could go home to the Travelodge she was living at. Even though we got very soaked, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive home contented and not so stressed. One more fuel drain in Dorset done well in my opinion!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question an important issue to take care of in an automobile - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol may well bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not remedied properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both situations rather quickly.

Remember though that whenever the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel in Car Dorset - Petrol in Diesel Car Tarrant Monkton

I'm not that interested in working on weekends, and the other day was no different. I had only just departed the wife and kids after a wonderful lunch cooked for me by the missus, and I was on the way to deal with a man because he put the wrong petrol in his light green Land Rover Defender 90. He was only in Tarrant Monkton therefore it wasn't a long time before I arrived with him. As I drove up at the rear of the vehicle and got out he explained to me "Praise the Almighty! I incredibly had my thoughts on something else and didn't grasp that I've put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. I need to know if I caused any problems because of starting it?" I revealed that there should not be any harm and that I'd remove the fuel as soon as possible for him. Needless to say I removed the fuel from the vehicle and filled up with some suitable fuel, and so one more satisfied client was able to continue on their traveling without the need for difficulty. He couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and that makes earning a living on weekends in Dorset just a small bit less painful for me!

The vehicle was chugging and then it died when she reached the the front of her office. We soon started on the fuel drain following her call and got it resolved in one hour whilst she was working. She came out afterwards and thanked us stating, "I'm really pleased you sorted my vehicle."

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.
