It was before 10 pm on a Tuesday and although we were guaranteed a rainless night, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Paul and I were seated talking about the golf rankings, at the ready for the next telephone call to come in. In due time we had the phone call from a girl on a company trip who had arrived at the BP petrol station in Cabourne and filled petrol in a diesel matte black Lexus IS rental. The poor lady was fairly distressed apparently, telling me "I can't believe I have messed up the car! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I completely didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" We instructed her to relax and not to worry, and also that these things unfortunately do happen.

The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious condition to deal with in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel will likely bring about idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove than water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both situations pretty expediently.

You should know however that if ever the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous 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.
