It was close to 10 pm on a Friday and while we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it had not ceased raining! Mark and I were resting there talking about the weekend's tennis rankings, waiting for the 8th job for the day to arrive. Inevitably we had the call from a girl on a business trip who had gone to the Tesco filling station in Bassett and filled petrol in a diesel mint green BMW 525 rental car. The unfortunate thing was somewhat troubled by the sounds of it, crying "I still cannot believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I am so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I had did not remember that I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to fret, and also that these things often happen.

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually a serious condition to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel may trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both situations fairly easily.

Remember that if ever the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.

This was exactly what is called an unsociable hour to be up. It was about 3 in the morning and noone was about. It had become pretty uneventful so far, and me and Paul were loafing about browsing a number of old articles. That was an unusual tranquil moment in Hampshire. It was in fact that tranquil that when the phone rang it made me jump! The voice told me: "I have completed my night shift and incredibly poured the wrong fuel in the bright red Mitsubishi Montero". I asked him to inform us where exactly the vehicle was situated and we set off, getting to him in Bassett only an hour or so later. The contaminated fuel was taken out from the vehicle and he thanked us for arriving so quickly. As we were going back home we saw two girls at the edge of the street who looked like they had a puncture. Obviously we stopped to change it, to their delight.

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.
