It was close to 5 pm on a Saturday and though we were assured a dry night, it had not ceased raining!

Before long we had the call from a girl on a company trip who had pulled into the Tesco petrol station in Street and filled petrol in a diesel sky blue BMW M Roadster hire car by mistake. She was rather troubled it seemed, stating "I simply cannot believe I've messed up the car! I am so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol car I completely forgot I was driving a diesel!"

The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually a significant condition to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in fuel tank is going to bring about idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both situations pretty easily.

You should know that if ever the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one is going to be totally water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

So long as the boat is either on land, or secured near to a car parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel.

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.
