It was about seven pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless afternoon, it had not stopped pouring! Mark and me were seated going over the recent sports results, prepared for the seventh call to arrive. Eventually we received the call from a young lady on a company excursion who had arrived at the BP filling station in Runsell Green and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel customised BMW 330 hire car by mistake. She was pretty affected by the sounds of it, crying "I just can't believe I've messed up the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I had didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I advised her to relax and not to be concerned, and that such things can happen. She was able to maneuver the car to a protected area and, since it was just a few miles from where we were, we were able to find her fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Despite the fact we got pretty drenched, it was all worth it to see her drive off satisfied and not so stressed. A misfuel correction in Essex well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious matter to deal with in an automobile - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel tank is going to lead to idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not remedied correctly, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain than water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both situations rather quickly.

Remember though that so long as the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one is going to be thoroughly 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.
