The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important issue to deal with in a vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol can certainly cause idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both cases quite easily.

Bear in mind however that any time the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial properties in North Yorkshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages.

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.
