It was just after five pm on a Thursday and while we were promised a dry night, it had not given up on raining! James and I were sitting there talking about the weekend's footy, waiting around for the next fuel drain to arrive. Finally we got a phone call from a girl on a business excursion who had gone to the BP petrol garage in South Littleton and put the wrong fuel in a diesel company's Cadillac STS-V lease car in error. The unfortunate thing was very agitated apparently, telling me "I still can't believe that I've messed up the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I totally did not remember I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to relax and not to fret, also that these things sadly happen. She managed to get the vehicle into a safe space and, seeing as it was only a short distance away from our van, we could get to the customer rather quickly. The bad fuel was extracted and she was able to return to the Premier Inn she was residing in. Despite the fact that we got extremely wet, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive home calm and less concerned. Another job in Worcestershire well done in my mind!

The 3 things you NEED to know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question a significant matter to address in a motor vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol can easily lead to idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of than water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both situations pretty easily.

Be aware though that if ever the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one is going to be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

This was what we call the night shift. It was roughly 2am and almost noone was about. It was pretty dead up to now, and me and John were loafing around reading a few old papers. It was an unusual peaceful moment in Worcestershire. It was in fact that peaceful that the instant the phone finally rang it made me jump! The voice said: "I completed my night shift and incredibly put the wrong fuel in a diesel son's Peugeot by mistake". We told him to let us know where exactly he was located and we set off, arriving in South Littleton less than half an hour later. The incorrect fuel was taken out from the engine. He said thanks for arriving so quickly. While we were returning to base we noticed two ladies on the edge of the highway who looked like they had a flat. As a result we stopped to 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.
