The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually an important condition to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel will contribute to idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with fully, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove in comparison with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both situations rather easily.

Keep in mind that whenever the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will be completely wet and useless.

It truly was an unsociable time to be up. It was around 2:30 in the morning and hardly anyone was about. It had become pretty uneventful up to now, and Ray and I were sitting about reading a number of old articles. That was an uncommon calm hour in Greater Manchester. It was in fact so relaxing that when the telephone eventually rang I jumped with surprise! The voice explained: "I ended my overnight shift and stupidly filled the wrong fuel in a metallic blue Daewoo Lanos by mistake". We asked him to inform us where exactly the vehicle was and we left, arriving in Heady Hill no more than an hour later. The wrong fuel was removed from the motor and he said thank you for coming so fast. As we were heading back home we noticed two girls on the edge of the road who looked like they had a flat tyre. So we pulled over 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.
