The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded or diesel, tends to be a serious matter to handle in a vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol can certainly bring about idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove than water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both cases fairly expediently.

Bear in mind that so long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and ineffective.

We have been called out to many private and business properties in Norfolk to deal with removing and recycling fuel storages.

Just had a quality night of sleep! 7:30 am on a gloomy Tuesday and we were en route to help an older sweetheart after she had put petrol in her diesel spotless BMW 550 in Darrow Green. She informed us that she had driven away from the petrol station and was pulled up on a rural lane en route to see her grandchildren. I got her location punched straight into the TomTom and was with her in less than an hour. I turned up at the destination and extracted the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. While I was working she explained, "I have been getting relatively forgetful in my old age and forgot about the car taking diesel seeing that I had only purchased it a week ago right after my old one, which I had had for about twenty five years, finally broke down". I finished the job and she offered me a Murray mint and said thanks. What a lovely Norfolk lady!

A customer from Darrow Green with a full car of youngsters in her diesel luxury Peugeot 107 had put £30 of petrol at the Texaco service station. She called us crying and genuinely upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel car and didn't know what might happen to her car because of it. We reassured her that everything should be okay and that she would be up and running in no time at all.

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.
