The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually an important matter to take care of in a car - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the fuel tank can easily contribute to idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain when compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can take care of both situations rather swiftly.

Be aware though that if ever the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one is going to be completely wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked close to a car parking bay we should be able to access the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.

Wrong Fuel Assist Dobcross - Wrong Fuel in Car Dobcross

I'd had a wonderful afternoon cycling during the weekend and felt cheerful with myself the following day as I set off to assist a young couple who were on vacation in Dobcross. They broken down after putting petrol in their apple green BMW 645, and the car was about half an hour away. I turned up at their car and smiled while I heard to the gal telling her hubby off for turning out to be so confused. "How could you actually find a way to fill the car up using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I tried to clarify that this situation happens on daily basis in Greater Manchester and that it's in reality nothing to get worried about, but he still had an ear bashing. Unlucky chap. Anyway, I removed all the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. Watching them drive away I mouthed farewell and wondered what my missus would do to me if perhaps I made the exact same error... I'd personally never ever live it down!

This was what we call the night shift. It was roughly 3:30am and nobody was about. It had been pretty quiet thus far, and Ryan and I were relaxing reading a few old newspapers. That was a rare quiet moment in Greater Manchester. Actually it was so peaceful that the moment the telephone eventually rang it made me jump! The customer on the other end said: "I have only just concluded my overnight shift and foolishly poured the wrong fuel in the Ferarri red Cadillac DeVille by mistake". I got him to tell us where the car was located and we headed out, arriving in Dobcross less than an hour later. The fuel was cleaned from the engine. He said thanks a lot for coming out so fast. As we were heading back to base we spotted two women at the edge of the street who seemed like they suffered a flat. Obviously we got out to change it, much 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 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.
