It was before five pm on a Friday and while we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and I were seated talking over the sports rankings, at the ready for the seventh call that day to arrive. Inevitably we got a call from a woman on a company excursion who had gone to the Esso petrol garage in Cratfield and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel elegant Volkswagen Eos rental car in error. The poor thing was rather irritated it seemed, crying "I can't believe I've destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I totally didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I told her to relax and not to be concerned, and that things like this can happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle to a safe position and, since it was no more than a few minutes off from where we were, we were able to find the woman rather quickly. The wrong fuel was drained and she could get back to the hotel she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got extremely drenched, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive off satisfied and a lot less apprehensive. Another job in Suffolk well done in my mind!

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


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant situation to handle in an automobile - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol is likely to contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both cases fairly expediently.

Take note though that as long as the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one is going to be totally 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 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.
