It was after 5 pm on a Saturday and though we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't given up on raining! Mark and I were resting there going over the weekend's footy rankings, ready for the next fuel drain that day to come in. Finally we received the phone call from a woman on a company expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol garage in Much Hoole Town and put petrol in her diesel maroon Cadillac Escalade rental car in error. She was quite agitated it seemed, saying "I simply can't believe I've ruined the car! I am so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol car that I completely didn't remember I was running a diesel!" We asked her to settle back and not to worry, also that such things sadly happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a safe position and, seeing as it was no more than a short distance off from where we were, we could reach the lady fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed so she could return to the motel she was lodging at.

The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious issue to handle in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel may well produce idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both cases pretty quickly.

Keep in mind though that so long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged 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.
