It was about five pm on a Friday and even though we were promised a dry and fresh day, it hadn't ceased pouring! Brian and I were resting there commenting on the recent tennis results, prepared for the sixth job to arrive. Finally we received the phone call from a lovely woman on a business trip who had gone to the Texaco filling station in Didsbury and filled petrol in a diesel burgundy red Peugeot 406 hire car in error. The poor lady was very affected by the sounds of it, stating "I still can't believe I've ruined the car! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember I was using a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that these things sadly happen. She managed to move the vehicle into a secure space and, seeing that it was only a short distance off from the office, we could get to the woman without delay. The bad fuel was drained so she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Despite the fact we got really wet, it was all rewarding to watch her drive away satisfied and not so stressed. A fuel drain in Greater Manchester well done in my books!

The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question an important condition to handle in a vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank will often produce idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of than water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both situations very quickly.

Be aware that any time the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one is going to be completely 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.

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.
