The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is without question an important condition to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol may well cause idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both situations very swiftly.

You should know though that whenever the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have successfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.

Ahhh, that was a fantastic night's sleep! 7:00 on a sunny Tuesday and we were on the way to help an older lady after she had put petrol in her diesel sunflower yellow Mitsubishi Diamante in Budleigh. She told us that she had left the petrol station forecourt and pulled up on a rural road en route to visit her family. I got the location plugged in the Satnav and arrived within an hour or so. I got to the destination and drained the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. As I was doing the work she said to me, "I am becoming somewhat forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle needing diesel because I had only purchased it a few days ago after my previous one, which I owned for about twenty years, finally gave up the ghost". I got the job done and she gifted me a Murray mint and said thanks. What a delightful Somerset lady!

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.
