The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious matter to handle in an automobile - especially in advanced common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your fuel is likely to result in idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both circumstances quite swiftly.

Take note that if the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one is going to be totally water-logged and useless.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Carrington - Fuel Rescue Carrington

This was exactly what is called the night shift. It was about dawn and hardly anyone was around. It was rather uneventful until now, and Ray and I were sitting about reading through several old newspapers. It was an unusual tranquil moment in Greater Manchester. It was so tranquil that when the telephone inevitably rang it made me start! The motorist on the opposite end explained: "I just concluded my overnight shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in a dark blue Saab 9-3 in error". We told him to tell us just where he was situated and we hit the road, getting to him in Carrington under an hour later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned from the car and he said thanks for arriving so quickly. As we were going back home we found two young women on the side of the road who appeared to have a flat tyre. So we pulled up to help them change it, much to their elation.

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 VA 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.
