The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious issue to address in an automobile - especially in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel will often produce idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both cases quite easily.

Remember that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Up Hatherley

Now I'm not actually very keen on carrying out work on Sundays, and last week was the same. I'd only just departed the family after a fantastic lunch made by the better half, and I was on the way to deal with a gentleman who filled the incorrect fuel in his bright red BMW M. He was situated in Up Hatherley so it wasn't long before I reached him. As I drove up at the rear of the vehicle and got busy draining he explained to me "Thank the Almighty! I foolishly had my concentration on something else and didn't realise I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Is it likely I caused damage by running it?" I stated generally there should not be any kind of damage and that I'd get the wrong fuel drained immediately. Needless to say I got the fuel drained from the vehicle and filled up with the suitable fuel, and then another satisfied client could continue on his traveling without the need for difficulty. He could not stop saying thanks to me, and this is exactly what helps make operating on Sundays in Gloucestershire just that little bit less painful in my opinion!

This was most definitely what we call an unsociable time to be up. It was about dawn and nobody was around. It had been pretty dead thus far, and John and I were sitting looking through several old papers. It was an uncommon restful time in Gloucestershire. Actually it was that calm that when my mobile ultimately rang I jumped! The customer said: "I've only just concluded my night shift and foolishly put petrol in my precious Daewoo Leganza". We instructed him to let us know exactly where he was and we set off, arriving in Up Hatherley only an hour or so later. The fuel was cleared from the vehicle and he thanked us for coming out so promptly. As we were heading back home we noticed two ladies at the side of the highway who appeared to have a puncture. Accordingly 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.
