It was around 6 pm on a Wednesday and while we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! James and me were seated talking about the recent tennis rankings, waiting for the seventh job that day to come in. Finally we had the phone call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol garage in Titchwell and filled petrol in a diesel metallic green Mercedes-Benz CL-Class rental by mistake. She was pretty agitated it seemed, telling me "I simply can't believe I have destroyed the car! I'm so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I totally did not remember I was using a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to worry, and also that these things unfortunately happen.

The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a serious situation to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel can easily lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove than water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both cases fairly swiftly.

You should know however that whenever the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one will likely be completely wet and ineffective.

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.
