It was just after ten pm on a Wednesday and although we were promised a rainless afternoon, it had not given up on pouring down rain! Dan and I were relaxing there talking over the rugby, at the ready for the 8th fuel drain that day to arrive. Before long we got a call from a lady on a business excursion who had gone to the Shell petrol station in Shepshed and filled petrol in her diesel rust red Toyota Sienna rental car by mistake. She was rather irritated apparently, telling me "I just can't believe I've ruined the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I totally did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I just instructed her to settle back and not to fret, plus that things like this unfortunately happen. She was able to maneuver the vehicle into a protected space and, as it was no more than a few minutes away from where we were, we could arrive at her rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted and she was able to once again go back to the Premier Inn she was living in. Even though we got thoroughly wet, it was all worth it to see her drive off relaxed and not so apprehensive. Yet another fuel drain in Leicestershire done well in my mind!

The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious issue to handle in a car - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel can bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied effectively, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both situations rather easily.

Remember though that as long as the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one is going to be totally water-logged and unusable.

Wrong Fuel Doctor Shepshed - Fuel Rescue Shepshed

A motorist employed in Shepshed called us as soon as she tried to get her misfueled car to work. She had filled the wrong fuel in her diesel brand new Jaguar XJ and, like plenty before her, imagined that she would be able to basically fill her car with diesel and it would be okay. The car was coughing and then it cut out when she got to the the front of her work. We immediately started on the fuel drain after she called and had it fixed within an hour or so whilst she was in the office. She came outside later on and thanked us stating, "I'm really delighted you fixed my vehicle."

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 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.
  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.
