It was around six pm on a Friday and although we were assured a rainless afternoon, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Paul and I were relaxing there commenting on the weekend's golf rankings, ready for the seventh job that day to arrive. Eventually we got the phone call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had arrived at the Sainsburys petrol station in Quenington and filled petrol in her diesel classic Jeep Cherokee lease car in error. She was rather distressed by the sounds of it, crying "I cannot believe I've wrecked the car! I'm just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I had forgot that I was running a diesel!" I asked her to relax and not to be concerned, and also that these things sadly do happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle to a safe spot and, as it was only a short distance off from where we were, we could find the lady swiftly. The contaminated fuel was removed so she was able to return to the hotel she was residing at. Even though we got fairly wet, it was all worthwhile to see her drive off relaxed and not so apprehensive. A job in Gloucestershire done well in my opinion!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question an important matter to take care of in a car - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel is going to contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both cases rather simply.

Take note that if ever the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will likely be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Quenington

We completed a wrong fuel retrieval exercise on the drive of a lovely residential home in Quenington not so long ago. "I had put the wrong fuel in my diesel car and was able to more or less reach home when my car broke down." Our specialist went out, even though it was fairly late at night, and performed a full fuel drain and cleanse on the light blue Mitsubishi Diamante .

This was an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was roughly dawn and noone was about. It had become pretty quiet up to now, and Ryan and I were sitting about looking through a number of old magazines. This was an unusual restful moment in Gloucestershire. Actually it was that relaxing that when the telephone ultimately rang I leaped with surprise! The motorist on the phone told me: "I ended my evening shift and foolishly poured the wrong fuel in the sky blue Seat in error". I got him to let us know just where the vehicle was situated and we set off, ending up in Quenington an hour later. The incorrect fuel was cleared from the motor and he thanked us profusely for showing up so fast. While we were returning to base we spotted two young ladies on the side of the street who looked like they had a puncture. So we pulled over and helped them change it, to their delight.

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.
