It was close to 8 pm on a Tuesday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it hadn't ceased pouring!

Finally we got a phone call from a girl on a business excursion who had pulled into the BP filling garage in Itchington and put the wrong fuel in a diesel mint green BMW X6 M rental car. The poor thing was very troubled apparently, stating "I can not believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol car I had didn't remember I was running a diesel!" I just asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and that these things do happen.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly a serious matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in fuel is likely to result in idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out fully, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both cases quite swiftly.

Take note however that if ever the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will be completely water-logged and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car in BS35 Postcode - Itchington Misfueling

Just had a good night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 am on a warm Saturday and I was off to help an older sweetheart after she put petrol in her diesel matte black Audi Cabriolet in Itchington. She informed us that she had driven away from the filling station and broken down in a rural lane en route to pay a visit to her family. I got the location plugged straight into the Satnav and got there in less than an hour. I arrived at the location and removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle. While I was doing it she told me, "I am becoming somewhat absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle using diesel because I'd just purchased it a short while back because my other one, which I had used for over twenty five years, finally stopped working". I got the drain done and she presented me a Murray mint and said thanks a lot. What a pleasant Gloucestershire lady!

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.
