It was before 5 pm on a Thursday and even though we were promised a dry and fresh night, it hadn't ceased pouring! Brian and me were sitting there going over the weekend's football, prepared for the sixth job to arrive. Inevitably we had a phone call from a woman on a company expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys filling garage in Wigbeth and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel red Dodge Avenger rental. The unfortunate lady was rather troubled apparently, telling me "I simply cannot believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm so used to putting unleaded in my petrol car I had forgot that I was operating a diesel!" We told her to take it easy and not to fret, and also that things like this sadly happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a protected spot and, because it was no more than a short distance off from the office, we could get to the lady almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could get back to the hotel she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got pretty soaked, it was all worth the effort to see her drive home satisfied and less anxious. One more misfuel correction in Dorset done well in my opinion!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious issue to deal with in a car - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel is going to produce idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both cases quite easily.

Take note that so long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will probably be totally wet and useless.

Waste Fuel Disposal

We have been called out to quite a few private and commercial properties in Dorset to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages.

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.
