Wrong Fuel in Car Brook - Petrol in Diesel Car Brook

Ahhh, that was a fantastic night of sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a rainy Tuesday and I was off to help an elder sweetheart who had put petrol in her diesel Brook. I had been informed she had left the filling station forecourt and was pulled up in a country road on route to visit her godchildren. I got her location plugged straight into the Satnav and was with her inside 60 minutes. I turned up at the location and drained the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. Whilst I was working she told me, "I have been getting relatively absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the car working with diesel seeing that I'd just got it a few days ago when my former one, which I had used for more than thirty years, eventually died".

Contamination with Water and AdBlue

You should also pay attention to the fact that incorrect fuel is not the only issue which makes the engine run in an abnormal manner, but sometimes the presence of water in the fuel can also make your vehicle produce too much smoke, stop, lack power, or run irregularly. But you should also remember that water can cause other serious damages like damage to fuel filters.

A diesel-powered car may also exhibit such symptoms when someone puts AdBlue straight into the vehicle’s fuel tank. It should be added to the vehicle through the dosing system of a separate built-in tank.

If you are faced with these two issues then you shouldn't feel worried as we can handle both of these issues making use of the same process we use in cases of wrong fuel contamination.

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 anywhere in Kent to 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.
