It was close to 8 pm on a Tuesday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh afternoon, it had not stopped raining! Ray and I were relaxing there talking about the weekend's golf results, at the ready for the next call that day to come in. Before long we had a phone call from a woman on a business expedition who had arrived at the BP petrol garage in Gussage St Andrew and put the wrong fuel in a diesel silver BMW 745 rental. The unfortunate thing was rather distressed by the sounds of it, stating "I simply can't believe I have messed up the car! I'm so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car I totally didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to be concerned, and that these things happen. She managed to maneuver the vehicle into a secure space and, because it was just a few minutes from us, we were able to reach her rather quickly. The contaminated fuel was drained and she was able to get back to the Travelodge she was living in. Despite the fact we got fairly soaked, it was all rewarding seeing her drive home relaxed and much less stressed. Another job in Dorset done well in my mind!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious situation to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the fuel tank can easily contribute to idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both situations quite swiftly.

Bear in mind that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one is going to be completely water-logged and unusable.

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 VA 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.
