It was just before 9 pm on a Thursday and even though we were promised a dry night, it hadn't ceased raining! Paul and I were sitting there discussing the golf rankings, prepared for the sixth job for the day to come in. Before long we had the call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had pulled into the BP filling garage in Willhayne and filled petrol in her diesel stylish Porsche Boxster rental by mistake. She was pretty distressed it seemed, stating "I can't believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I had did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I instructed her to relax and not to worry, and also that things like this sadly can happen.

The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be an important issue to take care of in an automobile - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel may contribute to idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied correctly, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. However we can handle both situations pretty swiftly.

You should know though that whenever the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will probably be thoroughly wet 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.
