Ryan and I were resting there discussing the rugby rankings, waiting around for the 8th telephone call for the day to arrive. In due time we got a call from a girl on a company excursion who had gone to the Sainsburys filling garage in Forest Green and put petrol in her diesel son's Bugatti Veyron rental by mistake. The poor thing was somewhat irritated apparently, telling me "I simply can't believe I've ruined the car! I am so familiar with filling up my petrol vehicle that I totally forgot I was running a diesel!" We instructed her to take it easy and not to worry, and that these things often happen.

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious matter to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel can certainly lead to idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of fully, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both situations quite swiftly.

Remember however that whenever the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

    • 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.
