The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious matter to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel may well result in idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not remedied properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both circumstances quite quickly.

Be aware however that whenever the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will probably be completely wet and useless.

A driver from Three Cups Corner with a full car of little ones in her diesel Ferarri red Cadillac XLR had filled her vehicle with £42 of petrol at the Shell petrol station. She phoned us sobbing and really worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel before and didn't know what could happen to her car because of it. We assured her that all should be okay and that she would be ready to go in no time at all. When we arrived on scene she was visible upset but as our fuel drainer got to work on the fuel drain she calmed down because she recognised that something could be done and her car wasn't wrecked.

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.
