The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually an important condition to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol can contribute to idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed correctly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain when compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both cases quite quickly.

Bear in mind that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will undoubtedly be totally wet and useless.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Shorne Ridgeway

We a few weeks ago got a phone call from a young man who had put the wrong fuel in his black Nissan JUKE in Shorne Ridgeway. He had ground to a halt on the street. "After adding petrol in my diesel car I didn't realize the issue up until the time I broke down. You took the wrong fuel from my car and had it working . I was happy due to both your call-out time and your pricing". It goes without saying that we were on-scene rapidly and flushed the engine after flushing the contaminated fuel from the diesel tank. When he arrived our fuel drainer said the motorist was raging, but was grinning his face off when we finished.

This was certainly an unsociable time to be on the road. It was about 3:30 in the morning and nobody was about. It had been rather uneventful so far, and me and Ray were relaxing reading a number of old articles. It was an unusual restful moment in Tower Hamlets. It was in fact that tranquil that the instant the telephone finally rang it made me start! The motorist stated: "I've only just completed my evening shift and foolishly filled the wrong fuel in the diesel cyan Toyota Sequoia in error". I told him to let us know exactly where the car was and we set off, arriving in Shorne Ridgeway less than 30 minutes later. The fuel was removed from the motor and he thanked us profusely for coming out so rapidly. As we were returning home we noticed two young women on the side of the road who appeared to have a puncture. Obviously we stopped to change it, much to their elation.

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.
