It was close to 9 pm on a Wednesday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Mark and I were relaxing commenting on the recent rugby results, waiting around for the sixth telephone call for the day to come in. In due time we got the phone call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had gone to the Texaco filling station in Howley and filled petrol in her diesel sunflower yellow Nissan 350Z Roadster rental in error. The poor lady was pretty distressed apparently, telling me "I cannot believe that I've messed up the car! I am just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I had forgot I was using a diesel!"

The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually an important condition to handle in an automobile - especially in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel will lead to idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed fully, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can resolve both circumstances very easily.

You should know that any time the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Wrong Fuel in Car in TA20 Postcode - Howley Misfueling

What a fantastic night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a gloomy Sunday and I was on the way to assist an old lady who put contaminated fuel in her diesel green Volkswagen Touareg 2 in Howley. I had been told she had driven away from the petrol station and was broken down along a rural lane on route to visit her godchildren. I punched the location in the TomTom and was with her inside 60 minutes. I turned up at the location and extracted the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. As I was doing the work she said to me, "Now I'm getting quite absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the car working with diesel because I'd only got it a couple of days ago when my old one, which I'd used for in excess of 30 years, inevitably died". I finished the job and she gave me a peppermint and thanked me for my work. Such a precious Somerset woman!

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.
