Finally we received the phone call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had gone to the Esso filling garage in Turn and put petrol in a diesel black Fiat Uno rental car. The unfortunate thing was fairly affected by the sounds of it, saying "I still cannot believe I have messed up the car!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually a significant condition to deal with in a car - especially in modern-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol will likely contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both cases rather expediently.

Keep in mind though that as long as the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

This was what is called the graveyard shift. It was around 3:30 in the morning and noone was about. It had been quite quiet so far, and me and Brian were loafing looking at a number of old magazines. This was a rare peaceful moment in Lancashire. Actually it was that peaceful that the instant my mobile ultimately rang I leaped with surprise! The person on the other end said: "I've concluded my evening shift and stupidly filled petrol in the work's Jaguar". We asked him to inform us where he was situated and we left, reaching him in Turn no more than an hour or so later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed from the car and he said thank you for showing up so promptly. As we were coming back to the depot we spotted two young women on the edge of the road who seemed like they suffered a flat tyre. Obviously we pulled over 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.
