The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally an important issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel may well contribute to idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out fully, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both situations pretty easily.

You should know though that if ever the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will probably be totally wet and unusable.

Wrong Fuel Assist Altbough - Wrong Fuel in Car Altbough

I'd had a perfect afternoon hiking during my holiday and was feeling contented with myself the following working day as I was on the way to assist a young couple holidaying in Altbough. They'd broken down after adding petrol into their dad's BMW 7 Series, and the car was about an hour's drive away. I emerged at their position and smiled to myself as I listened to the gal telling her partner off for actually being so foolish. "How could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I wanted to clarify that this kind of thing takes place all the time in Herefordshire and that it's in reality nothing to be anxious about, nevertheless he all the same got an earful. Poor boy. Anyway, I drained out the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. Watching them drive away I shouted good bye and thought about what her indoors would say to me if ever I made the exact same mistake... I'd personally never ever live it down!

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:

    • 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.
