It was after 10 pm on a Tuesday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless night, it had not stopped raining! Ray and I were resting there going over the weekend's golf rankings, waiting around for the 8th telephone call that day to arrive. In due time we got the phone call from a lovely women on a company trip who had pulled into the Esso petrol station in Wrantage and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel red Renault Clio rental car by mistake. The poor lady was fairly troubled it seemed, stating "I can not believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle I had did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I advised her to calm down and not to fret, and also that these things unfortunately happen. She managed to relocate the car into a protected space and, as it was just a few miles from our van, we could get to her right away. The wrong fuel was drained and she could get back to the motel she was living at. Even though we got fairly wet, it was all rewarding to see her drive off relaxed and a lot less concerned. Another fuel drain in Somerset done well in my books!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important matter to take care of in an automobile - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel can potentially produce idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed correctly, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both cases quite expediently.

Keep in mind though that as long as the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will probably be completely wet and useless.

Just had a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 am on a gloomy Tuesday and we were on my way to assist an old lady who had put petrol in her diesel red Mercedes S-Class in Wrantage. I had been told she had left the filling station and pulled up in a rural road along the way to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I plugged her location in the TomTom and arrived inside 60 minutes. I got to the location and extracted the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. As I was doing the work she said to me, "I have been becoming quite forgetful in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle working with diesel because I had just bought it a short while ago because my previous car, which I'd used for over 30 years, eventually died". I completed the job and she presented me a toffee and said thanks a lot. What a pleasant Somerset lady!

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.
