It was before 7 pm on a Saturday and though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it had not stopped raining! Dan and I were resting there commenting on the recent rugby results, waiting around for the 6th fuel drain that day to come in. Finally we had a call from a girl on a business expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys petrol garage in Smithy Green and filled petrol in her diesel navy blue Suzuki Samurai lease car. She was fairly distressed it seemed, stating "I cannot believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I am so accustomed to filling up my petrol car I completely did not remember that I was running a diesel!" We asked her to calm down and not to fret, and that these things sadly often happen.

The 3 things you MUST know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, can be an important issue to deal with in a car - especially in modern-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol can certainly cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both cases rather simply.

Take note that if ever the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will likely be thoroughly wet 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 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.
