It was close to seven pm on a Friday and while we were promised a dry night, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ryan and I were relaxing discussing the football, prepared for the 6th call to arrive. Eventually we got the call from a lovely women on a company trip who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol garage in Fobbing and put petrol in a diesel apricot BMW M Roadster rental car. The unfortunate lady was pretty troubled by the sounds of it, crying "I simply cannot believe I have wrecked the car! I'm so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I had did not remember I was operating a diesel!" I just advised her to settle back and not to be concerned, and also that such things often happen.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be an important issue to take care of in a car - particularly in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol can bring about idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both circumstances fairly quickly.

Remember however that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the previous one is going to be totally wet and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel Assist Fobbing - Wrong Fuel in Car Fobbing

I had a great day fishing on my day off and was feeling satisfied the next morning as I headed out to assist a young family away in Fobbing. They broken down after putting diesel in their Ferarri red Daewoo Lanos, and they were about half an hour's drive away. I got there at their position and smiled to myself as I listened to the gal berating her husband for being so stupid. "Exactly how could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I attempted to explain that this problem goes on constantly in Essex and that it's nothing at all to fret about, however he all the same had an earful by his wife. Poor boy. In any case, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the correct fuel. Watching while they drove off I shouted good-bye and wondered what my wife would do to me if ever I made the very same mistake... I would never ever live it down!

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.
