Finally we got a phone call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had pulled into the Texaco petrol station in Gipping and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel metallic red Range Rover Evoque hire car in error. The unfortunate thing was rather distressed it seemed, stating "I still cannot believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot I was driving a diesel!" I just asked her to calm down and not to be concerned, and that these things unfortunately often happen.

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a significant situation to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel tank will likely cause idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied effectively, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both situations fairly swiftly.

Bear in mind though that any time the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel in Car Suffolk - Petrol in Diesel Car Gipping

We a few weeks ago had a call about a driver who had put the wrong fuel in his grass green BMW in Gipping. He had broken down on the road. "It was amazing how rapid you guys were in sending a fuel drainer out to aid me when I stupidly filled my car with the wrong fuel. Thanks". Naturally we showed up promptly and flushed the engine after flushing the unleaded from the diesel tank. On arrival our fuel drainer said the driver was fuming, but was satisfied afterwards.

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.
