The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be a significant situation to address in a car - especially in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank may well produce idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both circumstances pretty quickly.

Remember however that in the event that the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will probably be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Now I'm not ever overly hot for doing work weekends, and a couple weeks ago was no different. I'd only just come away from home after a magnificent dinner made for me by the better half, and I was on my way to deal with a fellow after he put the incorrect fuel in his old Audi S6. He was somewhere in St Johns Wood hence I was there rapidly. As I pulled up at the rear of the vehicle and started work he said to me "Praise the Almighty! I incredibly had my attention on other things and failed to perceive I have put diesel in my petrol car. Is it likely I inflicted any kind of problems by running it?" I said there probably should not be problems and also that I'd personally get the contaminated fuel drained immediately. As expected I got the wrong fuel drained from the car and put in the suitable fuel, and then another pleased motorist could continue their ride without hassle. The gentleman did not stop thanking me, and that makes operating on Sundays in Westminster just a small bit better for me personally!

It truly was an unsociable time to be awake. It was about sunrise and almost noone was around. It was rather quiet so far, and Paul and I were loafing around reading several old newspapers. It was a rare tranquil moment in Westminster. It was in fact that quiet that when the phone ultimately rang it made me jump! The person on the other end stated: "I've just concluded my night shift and stupidly filled the wrong fuel in a baby blue Porsche Cayenne in error". We got him to let us know exactly where the car was situated and we left, arriving in St Johns Wood no more than an hour or so later. The fuel was cleaned from the engine and he said many thanks for coming out so rapidly. While we were heading back home we found two ladies on the side of the highway who appeared to have a flat tyre. As a result we stopped to change it, much to their delight.

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.
