It was just after six pm on a Friday and though we were assured a dry and fresh night, it had not stopped raining! Dan and me were sitting commenting on the weekend's football rankings, prepared for the seventh telephone call for the day to come in. Finally we received the call from a woman on a company trip who had pulled into the Esso petrol station in Blofield Heath and put the wrong fuel in her diesel apple green BMW M hire car by mistake. The poor thing was rather agitated apparently, crying "I can't believe I've messed up the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I had forgot that I was using a diesel!" We told her to relax and not to fret, and also that these things sadly do happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle into a protected position and, as it was no more than a few miles from where we were, we were able to reach the customer right away. The incorrect fuel was extracted and she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was lodging in.

The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be an important matter to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your fuel can cause idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove in comparison with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both situations quite easily.

Bear in mind however that as long as the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one is going to be thoroughly wet and useless.

Wrong Fuel Assist Blofield Heath - Wrong Fuel in Car Blofield Heath

I had a perfect afternoon fishing during the weekend and felt cheerful the next day as I headed out to help a new family on holiday in Blofield Heath. They had stopped after adding diesel in their son's Hyundai Excel, and they were about half an hour's travel away. I arrived at their location and smiled while I heard to the girl telling her partner off for turning out to be so stupid. "Exactly how could you possibly manage to fill up with the wrong fuel?" she told him. I wanted to tell her that this problem comes to pass on daily basis in Norfolk and that it is absolutely nothing to be anxious about, however he still had an earful. I felt genuine sympathy for the boy. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed all of the contaminated fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave them some proper fuel. Watching them drive away I shouted farewell and considered what her indoors would tell me if I did the exact same thing... I would personally never live it down!

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.
