The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely a significant situation to handle in a car - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel is likely to result in idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain as compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both circumstances rather swiftly.

Take note however that whenever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and useless.

We got a phone call from a man whose brand new Smart Fortwo had broken down on a street after a misfuel. "I got the pumps confused and put the wrong fuel in my car in error. You guys came out and sorted out the situation when my vehicle quit." We drained the petrol from the diesel tank and flushed the fuel lines completely afterwards and the motorist was able to go on with his scheduled delivery.

This was most definitely the graveyard shift. It was close to dawn and noone was about. It had become fairly quiet until now, and me and Brian were relaxing browsing a number of old papers. It was an uncommon quiet time in Rutland. Actually it was indeed so tranquil that when the telephone inevitably rang I jumped with surprise! The person on the phone said: "I finished my night shift and stupidly poured the wrong fuel in my diesel sombre grey Fiat 500 in error". I instructed him to let us know where exactly the vehicle was and we hit the road, reaching him in Cottesmore less than an hour or so later. The contaminated fuel was taken out from the motor and he thanked us for coming so rapidly. While we were going back to the depot we found two young women at the edge of the street who seemed like they had a puncture. So we pulled up and helped them change it, much to their elation.

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.
