The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be a significant issue to deal with in a car - especially in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol will contribute to idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both circumstances pretty swiftly.

Be aware though that as long as the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will likely be totally water-logged and useless.

This was certainly what we call the night shift. It was roughly 3:30 in the morning and nobody was stirring. It was pretty quiet until now, and me and John were relaxing perusing a couple of old articles. This was a rare peaceful hour in Wiltshire. It was in fact so peaceful that the instant my mobile ultimately rang I leaped with surprise! The voice on the opposite end stated: "I have only just ended my evening shift and stupidly filled petrol in a diesel partner's BMW 750". We got him to let us know exactly where the car was and we hit the road, getting to him in West Amesbury less than an hour later. The incorrect fuel was cleared from the engine and he said many thanks for arriving so fast. As we were going back to the office we noticed two girls at the edge of the road who seemed to have a flat tyre. Accordingly we pulled over to help them change it, much to their delight.

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.
