It was just before six pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless night, it had not stopped raining! Ryan and I were sitting talking over the rugby results, waiting around for the 8th telephone call to arrive. Inevitably we received the call from a lovely women on a business trip who had arrived at the BP filling garage in Tollard Farnham and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel modern Peugeot 2008 lease car by mistake. She was somewhat irritated by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply cannot believe that I have wrecked the car! I'm so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I totally did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" I just told her to take it easy and not to fret, and that these things unfortunately often happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a secure area and, since it was only a few minutes away from the office, we were able to get to the woman right away. The wrong fuel was removed so she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Despite the fact that we got really soaked, it was all worth it to see her drive off contented and much less anxious. Another misfuel correction in Dorset done well in my mind!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually an important situation to take care of in a vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel will often contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both circumstances fairly simply.

Keep in mind though that so long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and useless.

Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated close to a car parking spot we should be able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.

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.
