It was before 8 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were assured a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't given up on raining! Mark and me were relaxing talking over the weekend's tennis results, at the ready for the next job that day to come in. Inevitably we got a call from a young lady on a business expedition who had arrived at the Tesco petrol garage in Turnastone and put petrol in her diesel cobalt blue Mitsubishi Eclipse hire car in error. The unfortunate lady was rather troubled apparently, telling me "I can not believe I have ruined the car! I'm so used to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle I completely forgot I was driving a diesel!" We told her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and also that things like this regrettably happen. She was able to maneuver the car into a secure area and, since it was only a few minutes from where we were, we were able to arrive at the lady without delay. The wrong fuel was removed and she could once again go back to the hotel she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly drenched, it was all worth the time to watch her drive home relaxed and much less apprehensive. One more job in Herefordshire done well in my opinion!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be an important issue to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel will likely cause idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with correctly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both cases very simply.

Keep in mind that any time the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

Just had a great night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 am on a rainy Monday and we were on the way to help an old lady after she had put petrol in her diesel new Suzuki Verona in Turnastone. I'd been advised she had left the filling station and was broken down along a backwater road along the way to visit her grandchildren. I got her location punched in the TomTom and was on-scene in less than an hour or so. I arrived at the car and drained the wrong fuel out of the car. While I was doing the work she told me, "I am getting somewhat absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the car taking diesel since I had only acquired it a couple of days ago right after my former one, which I had had for over thirty years, finally died". I finished the job and she offered me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. Such a precious Herefordshire lady!

This was certainly an unsociable hour to be up. It was about 2 in the morning and almost noone was around. It had become fairly uneventful until now, and me and Paul were sitting about reading through a few old articles. It was an uncommon peaceful hour in Herefordshire. Actually it was indeed so tranquil that the moment the telephone ultimately rang I leaped with surprise! The motorist explained: "I just ended my overnight shift and stupidly poured petrol in my diesel navy blue Mazda RX-7 by mistake". We instructed him to let us know exactly where he was situated and we left, reaching him in Turnastone not as much as an hour or so later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned from the vehicle and he said thank you for getting there so fast. While we were going back to base we found two ladies on the edge of the highway who looked like they had a flat. As a result we stopped to help them change it, to their elation.

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.
