It was just after ten pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless evening, it had not stopped raining! Brian and me were seated there commenting on the football rankings, waiting around for the next telephone call for the day to arrive. Eventually we received the call from a girl on a company trip who had gone to the Esso petrol garage in Sollers Hope and put the wrong fuel in her diesel metallic green Volkswagen Passat hire car. She was rather troubled by the sounds of it, saying "I can't believe that I've destroyed the car! I am just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot I was using a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, also that such things regrettably often happen. She managed to move the vehicle into a safe space and, since it was no more than a short distance from where we were, we could reach the lady quickly. The wrong fuel was taken out so she could once again go back to the hotel she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth it to see her drive off contented and less worried. Yet another fuel drain in Herefordshire well done in my opinion!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be a serious situation to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol can easily cause idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both circumstances rather easily.

Take note though that as long as the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

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.
