Inevitably we received the phone call from a lovely woman on a company expedition who had arrived at the BP filling station in Longsight and put petrol in a diesel bright white Skoda hire car by mistake. She was quite troubled it seemed, crying "I still can't believe I've ruined the vehicle! I am just so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car that I had forgot I was running a diesel!"

The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually a significant situation to handle in a car - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel tank will likely bring about idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not sorted out fully, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both cases quite easily.

Take note that if the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one is going to be completely water-logged and unusable.

Now I am not ever that keen on doing the job on weekends, and a week ago was no different. I had only just come away from the family filled with a magnificent Sunday roast made for me by the better half, and I was on my way to deal with a gentleman because he filled the incorrect fuel in his precious Peugeot 207. He was stationed in Longsight hence it wouldn't be long before I got to him. As I pulled up right behind the car and started work he explained to me "Praise the Almighty! I stupidly had my mind on other considerations and didn't realise I had put diesel in my petrol car. I need to know if I created problems as a result of driving it?" I determined that generally there probably should not be any problems and also I'd drain the fuel as quickly as possible. Needless to say I drained the wrong fuel from the vehicle and put in the correct fuel, and so one more satisfied client was able to continue their journey without any subsequent bother. The man could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and that is exactly what tends to make carrying out work on weekends in Greater Manchester just that small bit easier to me!

It truly was an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was close to 2:30am and nobody was stirring. It had become fairly quiet until now, and Ray and I were relaxing perusing several old magazines. This was an unusual quiet moment in Greater Manchester. Actually it was that relaxing that the moment the telephone ultimately rang it made me start! The customer told me: "I have just finished my overnight shift and incredibly filled petrol in a black Chevrolet Silverado by mistake". I got him to let us know where the vehicle was situated and we hit the road, arriving in Longsight less than an hour or so later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed from the engine and he thanked us profusely for arriving so fast. While we were returning to base we found two women at the edge of the road who seemed like they suffered a flat tyre. As a result we pulled over and helped them change it, 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.
