Inevitably we had a phone call from a young lady on a business trip who had arrived at the BP petrol station in Latimer and put the wrong fuel in her diesel precious Dodge Charger hire car by mistake. She was fairly affected it seemed, telling me "I just can't believe I have ruined the vehicle! I am just so used to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I totally did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I just instructed her to settle back and not to worry, and that these things unfortunately happen.

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question an important situation to handle in a vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank can potentially contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied properly, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can handle both situations quite easily.

Be aware however that whenever the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one is going to be totally wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a vehicle parking bay we can gain access to the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.

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.
