Eventually we got a phone call from a girl on a company expedition who had gone to the BP petrol garage in Rickleton and put the wrong fuel in a diesel new Peugeot 104 lease car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was somewhat distressed it seemed, telling me "I cannot believe that I've ruined the vehicle!

The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant issue to handle in a motor vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your fuel tank can certainly bring about idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both cases quite expediently.

Bear in mind that in the event that the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a car parking bay we are able to access the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've successfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.

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.
