The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually a serious situation to handle in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel can certainly produce idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both cases pretty quickly.

You should know that if ever the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will be completely wet and unusable.

This was exactly the graveyard shift. It was about dawn and noone was around. It was fairly dead until now, and Mark and I were loafing about reading a couple of old papers. It was a rare tranquil hour in Berkshire. It was that tranquil that the instant my mobile ultimately rang it made me jump! The voice explained: "I have completed my night shift and incredibly poured the wrong fuel in a mint green Seat Toledo by mistake". We told him to inform us exactly where the car was and we hit the road, reaching him in Stratfield Mortimer under half an hour later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned from the car and he thanked us for arriving so fast. As we were coming back to base we noticed two young ladies at the side of the highway who looked like they suffered a flat tyre. So we pulled over to change it, to their elation.

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.
