The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important situation to deal with in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your fuel tank can certainly trigger idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both circumstances very easily.

You should know however that so long as the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will probably be completely wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a motor vehicle parking spot we should be able to reach the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.

What a good night of sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a sunny Monday and I was on the way to assist an elder lady after she had put petrol in her diesel apple green Cadillac Seville in Fair Oak. I had been informed she had driven away from the petrol station forecourt and was stranded in a country road en route to visit her family. I plugged her location in the TomTom and arrived inside an hour. I turned up at the car and removed the wrong fuel from the car. While I was doing the work she explained, "Now I'm getting somewhat absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle taking diesel as I'd just acquired it a short while ago because my other car, which I had had for in excess of thirty years, inevitably stopped working". I got the drain completed and she presented me a Murray mint and thanked me for my efforts. Such a delightful Lancashire woman!

Wrong Fuel in Car Lancashire - Petrol in Diesel Car Fair Oak

I wouldn't like conking out in a automobile full of the incorrect fuel in the middle of the street. Our most recent customer who filled up her tank with the wrong fuel (husband's Audi Coupe GT) in Fair Oak suffered precisely this kind of problem: "Obviously I mistakenly put petrol in my diesel car a few days ago. I was so distressed about it that I was actually in tears. Nonetheless I shouldn't have concerned myself simply because you were excellent in sorting the problem out."

This was exactly an unsociable hour to be up. It was close to 2:30 in the morning and noone was about. It was pretty uneventful thus far, and me and Ray were sitting reading a number of old articles. That was a rare peaceful time in Lancashire. Actually it was indeed that quiet that when the telephone eventually rang it made me start! The customer on the phone stated: "I have only just finished my evening shift and foolishly put petrol in my racing green Mercedes-Benz M-Class by mistake". We told him to tell us where he was situated and we headed out, getting to him in Fair Oak not as much as half an hour later. The wrong fuel was cleared from the vehicle. He thanked us profusely for getting there so promptly. While we were going back home we found two ladies at the edge of the street who seemed like they suffered a puncture. Accordingly we stopped to help 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.
