It was close to five pm on a Friday and while we were guaranteed a dry afternoon, it hadn't given up on pouring down rain! Brian and I were seated discussing the golf rankings, ready for the next telephone call to arrive. Before long we got a call from a girl on a business expedition who had gone to the Texaco petrol station in Orton and filled petrol in a diesel shiny Bentley Continental rental car in error. She was somewhat irritated apparently, telling me "I cannot believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I am so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car I completely forgot I was operating a diesel!" I just told her to calm down and not to worry, also that such things sadly can happen. She managed to get the vehicle to a safe space and, as it was only a short distance off from our van, we could arrive at the woman fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was removed and she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was residing at. Despite the fact that we got very drenched, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive away calm and less concerned. Another misfuel correction in Staffordshire done well in my books!

The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel can certainly produce idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove than water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both situations quite quickly.

Take note however that so long as the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

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 VAT 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.
