Dan and I were relaxing there talking over the sports, prepared for the next telephone call to arrive. Finally we received the phone call from a girl on a business trip who had pulled into the Esso filling station in Newtown Unthank and put the wrong fuel in a diesel customised Land Rover Defender lease car by mistake. She was quite troubled apparently, saying "I just can't believe I've ruined the car! I'm so used to filling my petrol car that I completely forgot I was operating a diesel!"

The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely a significant situation to address in a car - especially in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol is likely to result in idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both circumstances pretty quickly.

Bear in mind that so long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and useless.

They'd broken down after putting the wrong fuel into their daughter's Suzuki Kizashi, and the car was about half an hour's drive away.

    • 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.
