Inevitably we got the phone call from a lady on a company trip who had arrived at the Shell petrol garage in Darley Abbey and put the wrong fuel in a diesel light blue Toyota MR2 lease car by mistake. She was somewhat affected by the sounds of it, telling me "I simply can't believe I have messed up the vehicle! I'm so used to filling my petrol car I completely did not remember I was using a diesel!" I told her to calm down and not to worry, also that such things regrettably happen.

The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Marine Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to gain access to the tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel will often cause idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with correctly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both circumstances fairly swiftly.

Take note however that whenever the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will likely be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

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.
