It was after seven pm on a Friday and though we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not stopped pouring! James and me were relaxing there commenting on the weekend's rugby results, waiting for the 6th telephone call of the day to come in. Before long we received the call from a lady on a business trip who had pulled into the Sainsburys filling garage in Golders Green and put the wrong fuel in a diesel metallic red Honda rental car. The unfortunate lady was rather agitated apparently, stating "I can not believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol car I totally did not remember I was operating a diesel!" We asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, also that such things sadly often happen. She managed to get the car into a secure space and, seeing that it was no more than a few miles from our van, we were able to find the lady right away. The bad fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to go home to the motel she was residing in. Although we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth the time to see her drive home relaxed and a lot less worried. Yet another misfuel correction in Barnet done well in my mind!

The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly a serious condition to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel tank can certainly contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of properly, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both cases quite expediently.

You should know however that if ever the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one is going to be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

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.
