It was about six pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it had not ceased raining! Ray and I were sitting there going over the footy, waiting for the 6th job that day to come in. Finally we received a phone call from a lady on a business expedition who had pulled into the Shell petrol garage in Exton and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel dark green Range Rover rental. The unfortunate lady was fairly irritated apparently, telling me "I still can't believe I've ruined the car! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I advised her to calm down and not to be concerned, and that these things sadly happen. She managed to move the vehicle into a safe space and, because it was only a few miles away from our van, we could get to the lady right away. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she was able to return to the motel she was lodging at. Although we got fairly wet, it was all rewarding to see her drive home relaxed and much less worried. Yet another misfuel correction in Rutland done well in my books!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious issue to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel is going to result in idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both cases pretty easily.

Keep in mind though that whenever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly 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.
