It was just after ten pm on a Saturday and while we were promised a dry evening, it had not ceased raining! Mark and me were seated there talking about the recent football, waiting around for the 6th fuel drain for the day to come in. Finally we received a call from a woman on a business expedition who had pulled into the BP petrol garage in Mount Hill and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel rust red Ford Transit rental car. The unfortunate thing was fairly affected by the sounds of it, stating "I can't believe I have messed up the car! I am so used to filling my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just told her to relax and not to be concerned, plus that these things sadly often happen. She managed to move the car to a safe spot and, seeing as it was just a few miles from us, we were able to find her right away. The incorrect fuel was taken out so she could go home to the Travelodge she was residing at.

The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant condition to handle in an automobile - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol is going to contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both situations rather easily.

Bear in mind that if ever the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged 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.

  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.

  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.
