It was after 5 pm on a Thursday and although we were promised a dry and fresh night, it hadn't stopped raining! Mark and me were resting talking about the weekend's footy results, at the ready for the sixth job that day to arrive. Finally we had a phone call from a woman on a company expedition who had gone to the Esso filling garage in Worksop and filled petrol in a diesel navy blue Fiat Scudo rental car. She was rather troubled it seemed, saying "I simply cannot believe I've messed up the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I had did not remember that I was driving a diesel!" We told her to relax and not to fret, also that such things sadly can happen. She was able to get the car to a safe spot and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes away from our van, we were able to reach the woman rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was drained and she could get back to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Despite the fact we got thoroughly soaked, it was all rewarding seeing her drive home calm and less apprehensive. A job in Nottinghamshire well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious condition to take care of in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol can easily lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both situations fairly easily.

Take note though that in the event that the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will probably be totally wet and useless.

Wrong Fuel Assist Worksop - Wrong Fuel in Car Worksop

I had a great day hiking during my off day and was feeling pleased the next morning as I set out to assist a new family holidaying in Worksop. They had broken down after putting petrol in their deep grey Cadillac Eldorado, and were roughly an hour's drive away. I emerged at their location and smirked to myself while I listened to the woman telling her partner off for actually being so stupid. "Precisely how could you even find a way to fill the car up with the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I attempted to tell her that this kind of thing takes place frequently in Nottinghamshire and that it is nothing at all to worry about, even so he still had an earful. Unfortunate lad. Anyway, I drained all of the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some right fuel. While they drove off I shouted farewell and thought about what her indoors would ask me if perhaps I did the very same thing... I would never hear the end of it!

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 VAT 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.
