It was just before 6 pm on a Thursday and even though we were assured a dry evening, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Ryan and I were relaxing there commenting on the golf rankings, prepared for the seventh call that day to come in. In due time we received a phone call from a lady on a business trip who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling station in Mill Brow and filled petrol in a diesel mom's BMW 745 lease car in error. The poor lady was somewhat affected by the sounds of it, telling me "I still cannot believe that I've messed up the car! I'm just so used to filling my petrol car I totally forgot that I was operating a diesel!" We told her to settle back and not to worry, plus that such things unfortunately happen. She was able to get the car to a secure spot and, since it was only a short distance from the office, we were able to arrive at the lady right away. The bad fuel was removed and she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was staying at. Although we got really drenched, it was all rewarding to see her drive off relaxed and a lot less stressed. A job in Greater Manchester well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be an important matter to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel can potentially trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out than water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both cases pretty quickly.

Be aware though that as long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

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.
