It was before seven pm on a Saturday and while we were promised a dry night, it hadn't ceased pouring! James and me were resting talking over the weekend's football results, waiting for the 6th job of the day to arrive. Eventually we received the phone call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had gone to the Shell filling garage in Shellow Bowells and put the wrong fuel in her diesel grass green Subaru Impreza WRX rental car by mistake. She was somewhat distressed apparently, telling me "I cannot believe I have ruined the car! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol car that I totally didn't remember I was using a diesel!" We instructed her to take it easy and not to be concerned, plus that things like this happen. She managed to relocate the vehicle to a protected area and, as it was just a short distance away from the office, we could get to the lady fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was extracted so she could go home to the hotel she was residing at. Even though we got very wet, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive away calm and less apprehensive. A fuel drain in Essex well done in my mind!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is actually a serious situation to handle in a vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel may produce idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both circumstances pretty easily.

Take note that so long as the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

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.
