It was around six pm on a Monday and although we were promised a dry and fresh night, it hadn't stopped pouring! Ryan and I were seated commenting on the recent rugby rankings, waiting for the 6th telephone call to arrive. Finally we received the phone call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had pulled into the Texaco filling station in Hurst Green and filled petrol in a diesel precious Smart Fortwo rental car by mistake. She was rather affected apparently, stating "I can't believe I have ruined the vehicle! I am just so used to filling my petrol vehicle I had forgot that I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to settle back and not to worry, and that things like this regrettably often happen. She had managed to move the car into a safe space and, because it was just a few miles from the office, we could reach the lady swiftly.

The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a serious condition to take care of in a car - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank can lead to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both cases very simply.

Be aware though that in the event that the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old 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 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.
