The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a serious situation to deal with in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel will often trigger idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both circumstances pretty expediently.

Take note though that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one is going to be totally wet and useless.

Wrong Fuel in Car in PE33 Postcode - Barton Bendish Misfueling

What a fantastic night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 am on a warm Saturday and I was on my way to assist an old lovely lady after she put contaminated fuel in her diesel daughter's Land Rover Discovery in Barton Bendish. She informed us that she had left the petrol station forecourt and was stranded along a backwater lane along the way to see her godchildren. I popped the location in the TomTom and was on-scene within 60 minutes. I reached the car and removed the wrong fuel out of the car. As I was working she told me, "Now I'm getting relatively absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle working with diesel because I'd only just acquired it several days ago right after my other one, which I had owned for about thirty years, finally died". I got the job completed and she offered me a Murray mint and said thanks. Such a delightful Norfolk lady!

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.
