It was after 8 pm on a Thursday and while we were assured a rainless afternoon, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Mark and I were relaxing there discussing the footy rankings, at the ready for the next call of the day to arrive. Before long we had the call from a girl on a business excursion who had gone to the Shell filling garage in Turlin Moor and put the wrong fuel in a diesel creamy white Volkswagen GLI rental car by mistake. The unfortunate thing was very distressed apparently, stating "I still cannot believe I've ruined the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember I was running a diesel!" I advised her to relax and not to fret, and also that such things sadly often happen.

The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant matter to take care of in an automobile - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your fuel can certainly lead to idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not remedied fully, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both cases very quickly.

Bear in mind though that as long as the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near to a vehicle parking spot we are able to access the storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've successfully done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.

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.
