It was around 8 pm on a Tuesday and although we were promised a dry and fresh day, it hadn't given up on raining! James and I were resting talking over the weekend's rugby results, at the ready for the next job of the day to come in. Finally we got the phone call from a woman on a company trip who had gone to the Texaco petrol garage in Glenleigh Park and put petrol in her diesel bright yellow Toyota Cressida lease car in error. She was rather agitated apparently, saying "I still cannot believe I have ruined the car! I am so used to putting petrol in my petrol car that I completely did not remember that I was using a diesel!" We asked her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that such things can happen. She was able to get the vehicle into a protected area and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes away from the office, we could arrive at her without delay. The bad fuel was extracted so she could get back to the Travelodge she was lodging in. Even though we got extremely drenched, it was all worth the time seeing her drive off contented and much less stressed. A fuel drain in East Sussex done well in my books!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally a serious issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in fuel tank will often result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both situations pretty swiftly.

Be aware that any time the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will likely be totally wet and ineffective.

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.
