It was just before 10 pm on a Tuesday and although we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it hadn't stopped pouring! Brian and me were relaxing there discussing the sports, at the ready for the 6th fuel drain that day to come in. Before long we got a phone call from a lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the Sainsburys filling garage in Hooke and put petrol in her diesel company's Audi Cabriolet lease car in error. The poor lady was fairly agitated by the sounds of it, crying "I simply cannot believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol car I completely didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" We told her to relax and not to fret, also that these things can happen. She had managed to get the vehicle into a protected area and, since it was just a short distance off from the office, we could get to her almost instantly. The contaminated fuel was removed and she could go home to the Travelodge she was staying at. Although we got fairly soaked, it was all worth it to see her drive off calm and not so stressed. Another fuel drain in Dorset done well in my mind!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally an important matter to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel tank will trigger idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not addressed fully, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to handle both cases rather easily.

Take note that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the previous one is going to be totally wet and useless.

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.
