It was after ten pm on a Friday and even though we were assured a dry and fresh day, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Ray and me were seated discussing the recent golf rankings, waiting for the 6th call to arrive. Eventually we received the call from a woman on a business trip who had pulled into the Esso filling garage in Oakleigh Park and put petrol in a diesel metallic grey Mercedes CLK-Class lease car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was very distressed it seemed, stating "I still can't believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I am just so used to filling my petrol car I completely forgot I was using a diesel!" I just asked her to relax and not to worry, and also that things like this sadly happen.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally a serious situation to take care of in an automobile - especially in advanced common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol can potentially trigger idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain as compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both cases quite expediently.

Bear in mind however that whenever the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will likely be completely water-logged 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.
