It was just after 10 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were assured a dry night, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Ray and I were relaxing talking about the recent tennis, waiting around for the seventh fuel drain for the day to come in. Before long we got a call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had gone to the Tesco petrol garage in Newtown and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel rust red Honda CR-Z rental in error. The unfortunate thing was quite distressed it seemed, crying "I just can't believe I've wrecked the car! I am so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car I totally forgot I was using a diesel!" I instructed her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that these things often happen. She was able to relocate the car to a safe position and, seeing that it was only a short distance away from the office, we were able to get to the customer swiftly. The wrong fuel was removed so she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was living in. Although we got really soaked, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive home relaxed and less anxious. A misfuel correction in Somerset done well in my mind!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a significant condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol will often bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both cases pretty easily.

Remember that any time the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the previous one will probably be totally water-logged and unusable.

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.
