Finally we had the phone call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had pulled into the BP petrol garage in Kingswood Common and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel light green Mitsubishi Expo rental car. She was quite agitated by the sounds of it, stating "I simply can't believe I've messed up the car! I'm so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol car I totally forgot I was running a diesel!"

The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you have the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help clean it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or moored close enough to a car or truck parking spot we will be able to access the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have successfully done many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly an important condition to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel can potentially contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not remedied correctly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain than water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both situations quite quickly.

You should know though that if the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and useless.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Kingswood Common

I'm certainly not very keen on running on Sundays, and the other day was the same. I'd only just left the family after a magnificent dinner made for us by the missus, and I was on my way to help a man after he had filled the incorrect petrol in his spotless Ford Aspire. He was stationed in Kingswood Common hence it wouldn't be long before I got to him. As I drove up right behind the car and started work he told me "Praise the Almighty! I stupidly had my mind on other considerations and failed to realise I had put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Is it possible I created some damage simply by starting it?" I stated that generally there shouldn't be damage and also that I would personally get the wrong fuel drained at once for him. Naturally I got the fuel drained from the vehicle and filled up with the appropriate fuel, and then yet another satisfied motorist was able to carry on with their journey without any subsequent difficulty. He couldn't stop thanking me, and that is actually what helps make operating on weekends in Worcestershire a little less painful in my opinion!

A lady living in Kingswood Common contacted us after she tried to get her wrong fueled car to work. She had filled the wrong fuel in her diesel apple green Audi Q5 and, like many prior to her, thought that she would be able to just fill up her car with diesel and it'd run fine. The engine was chugging and then it cut out when she reached the entrance of her work. We soon started on the fuel drain after she called and had it fixed in 60 minutes while she was working. She came out afterwards and thanked us saying, "I'm really glad you repaired my vehicle."

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.
