It was before seven pm on a Thursday and although we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it hadn't ceased pouring! Ray and I were resting there commenting on the golf, waiting around for the sixth fuel drain of the day to come in. Finally we received a phone call from a young lady on a company excursion who had gone to the Esso petrol garage in Christian Malford and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel grass green Bugatti Veyron rental car. The unfortunate thing was somewhat affected apparently, saying "I can not believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling up my petrol car I completely forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I told her to calm down and not to fret, also that such things regrettably do happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a protected spot and, seeing as it was only a few miles away from where we were, we could reach the woman rather quickly. The wrong fuel was drained so she could return to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got pretty wet, it was all worth it seeing her drive home satisfied and a lot less apprehensive. Yet another fuel drain in Wiltshire well done in my books!

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


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually an important condition to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol can certainly cause idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with fully, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both situations pretty quickly.

Remember however that as long as the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one will probably be thoroughly wet and useless.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Christian Malford

Now I'm not excessively inclined to running on Sundays, and 2 weeks ago was no different. I had only just departed the family after a magnificent roast made for us by the wife, and I was en route to help a guy who put the incorrect petrol in his mom's Land Rover Defender. He was located in Christian Malford so I was on scene very quickly. Just as I arrived right behind the vehicle and got out he explained to me "Thank the Almighty! I foolishly had my attention on something else and did not grasp that I have put diesel in my petrol car. Is it possible I inflicted any kind of harm as a result of driving it?" I determined that generally there probably should not be harm and that I'd drain the contaminated fuel immediately for him. Naturally I got the contaminated fuel drained from the vehicle and put in some correct fuel, and then another delighted motorist could carry on with their traveling with no fuss. The man could not stop thanking me, and this is what helps make working on weekends in Wiltshire that little bit less painful for me!

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 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.
