The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important issue to deal with in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol will result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both circumstances rather swiftly.

Be aware however that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will probably be completely water-logged and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

Providing the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to parking bay we are able to access the tanks and drain out the fuel. We've done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.

Wrong Fuel Assist Highwood - Wrong Fuel in Car Highwood

I had appreciated a wonderful day cycling during my day off and felt cheerful the following morning as I was en route to help a young couple who were on vacation in Highwood. They conked out after filling diesel in their bright red Jeep Grand Cherokee, and the car was close to an hour's drive away. I turned up at their car and laughed to myself as I heard to the wife telling her spouse off for turning out to be so silly. "Just how could you possibly manage to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I tried to explain that this happens continuously in Dorset and that it's nothing to be concerned about, nonetheless he all the same got an ear bashing. Poor lad. At any rate, I drained out the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some correct fuel. Watching them drive away I shouted goodbye and wondered what my missus would ask me if perhaps I did the exact same thing... I would personally never hear the end of it!

Wrong Fuel in Car Dorset - Petrol in Diesel Car Highwood

We did a wrong fuel retrieval exercise outside a beautiful residence in Highwood not so long ago. "I had put the wrong fuel in my diesel car and was able to virtually reach home when my car cut out." Our technician went out, despite the fact that it was fairly late at night, and did a full fuel drain and purge on the mate's Toyota RAV4 to everyone's satisfaction.

This was certainly the night shift. It was around sunrise and almost noone was about. It was fairly quiet so far, and Mark and I were sitting about perusing a number of old articles. It was an uncommon quiet time in Dorset. It was so calm that the instant my mobile inevitably rang it made me jump! The customer on the opposite end told me: "I have just concluded my overnight shift and foolishly put petrol in my diesel company's Mitsubishi 3000GT". I told him to tell us just where the car was situated and we headed out, arriving in Highwood no more than half an hour later. The contaminated fuel was extracted from the engine and he thanked us profusely for getting there so promptly. While we were returning home we saw two women on the edge of the highway who seemed like they had a flat. Obviously we pulled over to change it, much 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 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.
  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.
