The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is without question a serious matter to address in a car - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel is likely to produce idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both circumstances fairly swiftly.

Wrong Fuel in Car Somerset - Petrol in Diesel Car Nailsea

Now I am not ever excessively interested in running Sundays, and a couple weeks ago was the same. I'd just left the wife and kids following a magnificent dinner made by the better half, and I was on the way to deal with a guy because he put the wrong petrol in his super Hyundai Tiburon. He was located in Nailsea and so it wouldn't be long before I reached him. Just as I pulled up right behind the car and started work he told me "Thank God! I had my mind on something else and didn't perceive I'd put diesel in my petrol car. I need to know if I inflicted damage by starting it?" I stated generally there should not be any harm and that I'd get the wrong fuel drained quickly for him. It goes without saying that I got the contaminated fuel drained from the vehicle and filled it with some correct fuel, and thus another contented customer could continue on his traveling without the fuss. He could not stop saying thanks to me, and this is exactly what can make working on Sundays in Somerset a little less painful to me!

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.
