It was just before 6 pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry night, it had not given up on pouring! Brian and I were seated there going over the golf, ready for the next job that day to come in. Finally we got the call from a lady on a company expedition who had pulled into the Texaco filling garage in Strawberry Hill and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel compact Cadillac Escalade ESV lease car by mistake. The poor lady was fairly distressed by the sounds of it, saying "I still can't believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol car I completely didn't remember I was running a diesel!" I asked her to settle back and not to fret, and also that these things unfortunately do happen. She was able to get the car into a protected space and, because it was no more than a short distance away from the office, we were able to reach the lady rather quickly. The bad fuel was removed and she could get back to the motel she was residing at. Even though we got very soaked, it was all rewarding to watch her drive away contented and not so apprehensive. Yet another misfuel correction in East Sussex well done in my mind!

The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally an important situation to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel may well produce idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied fully, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both cases rather quickly.

Bear in mind that so long as the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will probably be completely wet and useless.

This was what is called an unsociable time to be awake. It was roughly dawn and nobody was about. It had become rather dead up to now, and Mark and I were loafing about looking at some old papers. It was an uncommon quiet time in East Sussex. It was in fact that tranquil that when my mobile eventually rang it made me jump! The person said: "I just finished my overnight shift and stupidly filled petrol in the dirty red Volvo240 by mistake". I got him to tell us where exactly the car was located and we set off, arriving in Strawberry Hill under an hour later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed from the car and he said thank you for coming out so promptly.

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.
