The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant condition to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel can easily trigger idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both situations fairly quickly.

Keep in mind however that if the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one is going to be completely wet and useless.

A somewhat concerned motorist phoned us from the Esso petrol station at Berkshire to tell us that he put petrol in to his diesel mum's BMW 7 Series; he wasn't really quite sure how he'd managed to do it. We advised him it was no problem and quickly had our man with him to clean the incorrect fuel from his vehicle. Having taken out the bad fuel, he was shortly back driving. He told us; "I can't believe I put the wrong fuel in my car. And the technician who appeared to perform the fuel drain was really fantastic - he did not make me appear an idiot."

We performed a wrong fuel retrieval job outside a spectacular house in Stubbings recently. "I put petrol in my diesel car and was able to more or less get home when my car cut out."

Wrong Fuel Doctor Stubbings - Fuel Rescue Stubbings

A customer from Stubbings with her children in her diesel expensive Land Rover Range Rover Evoque had put £20 of petrol at the BP petrol station. She phoned us sobbing and very upset as she had never put petrol in a diesel and did not know what would happen to her vehicle in doing so. We reassured her that all should be alright and that she would be on the road soon. When we arrived she was still upset but as our fuel drainer started work on the fuel drain she calmed down since she saw that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't wrecked. She soon enough cheered up and was up and running saying, "I simply can't believe my misfortune putting petrol in my diesel car! Specifically with the little ones on board."

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.
