Wrong Fuel in Car Lane Head - Petrol in Diesel Car Lane Head

This was most definitely what is called an unsociable time to be up. It was around sunrise and noone was about. It was fairly quiet so far, and Ryan and I were loafing reading through several old articles. It was an unusual peaceful hour. Actually it was in fact that tranquil that when the phone finally rang I leaped with surprise! The customer stated: "I just finished my night shift and stupidly put petrol in a diesel Lane Head by mistake". We told him to let us know where he was and we set off, arriving no more than an hour or so later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed from the engine and he thanked us for getting there so rapidly. While we were going back home we saw two young ladies on the edge of the highway who seemed like they had a flat tyre. Accordingly we stopped and helped them change it, much to their delight.



Signs of the Problem and its Causes

Your experience of having a tank fueled with the wrong fuel may teach you see the signs of the problem. For complete reference for future use, here are some the symptoms:

  • Your engine will splutter and not work efficiently
  • You may observe a lot of smoke coming from the exhaust
  • Engine seems powerless now matter how hard you push the accelerator
  • Your car will ultimately stop running altogether

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about fuel contamination!



Noting all of the above, I suppose you'll be very careful in your next stop at the gas station to refill. You may come back to think what caused the wrong fuel problem in the first place.

  • You are in a hurry and confused on what exactly to do
  • You're in autopilot mode and not checking
  • Being in a car or truck you aren't used to - borrowing or hiring a vehicle

Your fuel might also be contaminated with water

Presence of water in fuel is another thing which can make your car behave in the manner mentioned above. Hence you also have to consider it. It will make your car behave abnormally and ultimately stops regardless of whether it uses diesel or petrol thus you should also suspect it if you are in a situation of doubt.

AdBlue is a diesel system additive that makes the engine work cleaner. However, it should just be used by experts who understand where and how to use it. If not, your car will start behaving badly. The wrong usage can, however, be avoided by using its own AdBlue tank and filler cap. When somebody who is inexperienced in administering AdBlue correctly, it is common that they miss the mark.

Just like when a car has incorrect fuel, AdBlue also causes the vehicle not to move smoothly and eventually lead to the vehicle to stop. Fortunately, we are here for you. Our mobile technicians are used to managing a great deal of car problems, not only water contamination or having the incorrect fuel in the vehicle but this kind of issue too.

It is therefore recommended you involve a professional whenever you are coping with fuel related problems, even though doing it on your own or involving a friend may be cheaper.

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 anywhere in West Yorkshire to 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.
