It was close to eight pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! James and I were resting commenting on the golf, at the ready for the next fuel drain of the day to come in. Before long we received a phone call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had pulled into the Sainsburys petrol garage in Upcott and put petrol in her diesel mustard yellow BMW 550 hire car in error. The poor thing was rather agitated by the sounds of it, saying "I simply can't believe that I have ruined the car! I'm just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that things like this sadly can happen.

The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question an important matter to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol can cause idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both cases quite easily.

Remember however that so long as the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and useless.

Waste Fuel Disposal

Wrong Fuel in Car in TA4 Postcode - Upcott Misfueling

What a good night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 on a sunny Saturday and we were off to help an older lady after she put contaminated fuel in her diesel uncle's Citron in Upcott. I'd been advised she had left the petrol station forecourt and was pulled up on a country road en route to see her grandchildren. I plugged her location into the Satnav and got there within 60 minutes. I arrived at the vehicle and extracted the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. Whilst I was doing it she said, "I have been getting quite absent-minded in my senior years and didn't remember about the vehicle needing diesel because I'd only just got it a few days ago when my old car, which I'd used for about twenty five years, finally died". I finished the drain and she presented me a Murray mint and said thanks a lot. What 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.
