It was about eight pm on a Friday and while we were promised a rainless evening, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Ray and I were resting talking about the recent footy results, waiting around for the 8th telephone call that day to arrive. Finally we received a call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had gone to the BP petrol garage in St Denys and put petrol in her diesel sunflower yellow Isuzu i-370 hire car in error. The poor lady was fairly irritated it seemed, crying "I still cannot believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot that I was using a diesel!" I advised her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that such things unfortunately can happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a protected space and, seeing as it was no more than a few minutes off from the office, we could get to the woman rather quickly. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to once again go back to the Travelodge she was living at. Despite the fact that we got really soaked, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive off calm and much less concerned. Yet another fuel drain in Hampshire well done in my mind!

The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely an important issue to take care of in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel may well produce idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both situations very easily.

You should know though that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will undoubtedly be completely wet 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 VAT 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.
