It was just after eight pm on a Wednesday and while we were promised a dry evening, it hadn't ceased pouring! Brian and I were relaxing there commenting on the recent sports results, at the ready for the seventh call that day to come in. Finally we had a phone call from a young lady on a business expedition who had gone to the BP filling garage in Shenstone Woodend and filled petrol in a diesel brother's Ford Club Wagon lease car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was rather irritated by the sounds of it, saying "I still cannot believe I've ruined the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I completely did not remember I was using a diesel!" We told her to relax and not to be concerned, and that things like this unfortunately happen. She had managed to get the vehicle to a safe position and, as it was only a few miles off from our van, we were able to get to the customer swiftly.

The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious condition to deal with in an automobile - especially in modern-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the fuel tank can easily cause idling problems, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied fully, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both circumstances rather expediently.

Remember however that as long as the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one will probably be completely wet and useless.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

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.
