It was before 5 pm on a Friday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it hadn't ceased raining! Mark and me were sitting there talking over the sports, at the ready for the next fuel drain for the day to come in. Eventually we received the phone call from a girl on a company expedition who had pulled into the Tesco filling station in Brunswick Park and filled petrol in her diesel grass green BMW 760 rental car in error. The unfortunate thing was rather affected apparently, stating "I still cannot believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember I was using a diesel!" I told her to take it easy and not to worry, also that such things regrettably often happen. She had managed to maneuver the car into a protected position and, since it was no more than a short distance away from where we were, we were able to get to her almost instantly. The wrong fuel was extracted and she could get back to the Travelodge she was staying at. Despite the fact we got fairly drenched, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive away contented and a lot less worried. Another job in Barnet done well in my books!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be a serious condition to address in a car - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the fuel tank will often produce idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both cases fairly quickly.

Bear in mind though that any time the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will likely be totally wet and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car in N11 Postcode - Brunswick Park Misfueling

A somewhat alarmed motorist phoned us from the Texaco petrol station at Barnet to tell us that he put petrol into his diesel khaki green BMW 745; he wasn't entirely sure how he'd done it. We assured him it was absolutely no hassle and rapidly had our engineer with him to clear the incorrect fuel from his car. Having extracted the contaminated fuel, he was soon enough back behind the wheel. He told us; "I am really surprised I put petrol in my diesel car. And the gentleman who was sent to perform the fuel drain was really pleasant - he did not make me look foolish."

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Brunswick Park

It must be horrible grinding to a halt in a car full of the improper fuel halfway down the road. Recently a customer who filled her car with the wrong fuel (apple green Hyundai Genesis Coupe) in Brunswick Park endured literally this type of problem: "You may already know I foolishly put unleaded in my diesel car like a total fool. I was so upset about the wrong fuel in my car that I was in tears. Fortunately I shouldn't have concerned myself seeing as you were terrific in dealing with the problem."

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.
