Before long we received a call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had gone to the Shell petrol garage in Old Netley and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel classic Fiat 500 rental. The unfortunate thing was pretty affected it seemed, telling me "I cannot believe I've destroyed the vehicle!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant condition to take care of in a car - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel can cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out properly, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both circumstances quite quickly.

Keep in mind that any time the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one is going to be totally 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.
