Water or AdBlue in fuel tank is likely to trigger idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both cases rather swiftly.

Wrong Fuel Assist Fen Street - Wrong Fuel in Car Fen Street

I had enjoyed a terrific afternoon fishing during my off day and felt pleased the following working day as I set off to help a young couple vacationing in Fen Street. They had pulled over after inserting diesel in their metallic green Audi A3, and they were around an hour's drive away. I emerged at their position and laughed to myself as I listened to the lady chastising her man for actually being so stupid. "Just how could you conceivably find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I tried to tell her that this problem takes place on daily basis in Norfolk and that it is nothing at all to be anxious about, even so he still had his ear bent by his wife. Poor lad. Anyhow, I removed the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. While watching them drive down the road I shouted hasta la vista and pondered on what my missus would ask me if ever I did the very same thing... I would never ever 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.
