The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is usually an important matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol can potentially produce idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain in comparison with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both circumstances very expediently.

Keep in mind however that so long as the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will be totally wet and ineffective.

Just had a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 on a rainy Sunday and I was on my way to help an older lovely lady who had put the wrong fuel in her diesel light blue VW Golf III in Gilnow. I'd been told she had driven away from the petrol station forecourt and broken down on a backwater lane along the way to visit her godchildren. I got her location plugged in the Satnav and arrived within 60 minutes. I turned up at the location and extracted the wrong fuel out of the car. Whilst I was doing it she explained, "Now I'm getting rather absent-minded in my senior years and didn't remember about the car taking diesel as I had only bought it a week ago when my other one, which I'd owned for over 30 years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I completed the drain and she gave me a Murray mint and thanked me for my efforts. What a precious Greater Manchester lady!

I had appreciated a perfect day golfing during my day off and felt delighted the following working day as I headed out to help a new family holidaying in Gilnow. They conked out after inserting the wrong fuel into their stylish Audi S5, and they were close to half an hour away. I turned up at their position and smirked to myself as I heard to the woman berating her hubby for turning out to be so confused. "Precisely how could you actually manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I attempted to tell her that this happens regularly in Greater Manchester and that it's actually absolutely nothing to stress about, however he in spite of everything got an ear bashing. Unlucky lad. Anyhow, I cleaned up and removed the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some proper fuel. While they drove off I waved goodbye and wondered what my wife would tell me if I did the exact same thing... I would never ever live it down!

A customer from Gilnow with her little ones in her diesel creamy white Mercedes-Benz Sprinter 2500 had filled her vehicle with £45 of petrol at the Sainsburys station. She phoned us weeping and really worried as she had never wrong fueled and didn't know what would happen to her car in doing so. We told her that everything should be alright and that she would be back ready to go quickly. When we arrived on scene she was still distressed but while our engineer began work on the fuel drain she simmered down as she recognised that something could be done and her vehicle wasn't unfixable. She soon cheered up and was on the road again saying, "I can't believe my bad luck putting petrol in my diesel car! Especially with the children in the back."

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.
