It was close to eight pm on a Wednesday and even though we were promised a dry night, it had not stopped raining! Dan and I were relaxing there talking over the recent sports results, ready for the sixth telephone call of the day to come in. Before long we got a phone call from a lady on a company expedition who had pulled into the BP petrol station in Great Tey and put petrol in a diesel compact Saab rental. The unfortunate lady was rather agitated by the sounds of it, saying "I just can't believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm so used to filling my petrol car that I completely didn't remember that I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to worry, plus that such things sadly can happen. She was able to get the vehicle into a secure spot and, seeing that it was only a short distance away from where we were, we were able to arrive at the woman fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she could get back to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Despite the fact that we got really wet, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive away calm and much less stressed. A job in Essex done well in my books!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important condition to handle in a vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel will produce idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with correctly, quite possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both cases quite quickly.

You should know though that if the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will be completely wet and ineffective.

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.
