It was just before 9 pm on a Tuesday and although we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't ceased pouring! Paul and I were seated talking about the weekend's golf rankings, prepared for the sixth fuel drain that day to arrive. Finally we had a call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had arrived at the Tesco petrol garage in Farleton and put petrol in her diesel winter grey Fiat Uno rental car. She was rather affected it seemed, saying "I simply can't believe that I have destroyed the vehicle! I'm just so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I had forgot that I was operating a diesel!" I asked her to calm down and not to be concerned, plus that such things unfortunately do happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle into a protected position and, seeing that it was no more than a few minutes off from us, we were able to reach the lady rather quickly. The incorrect fuel was drained and she could go home to the motel she was residing in. Although we got pretty soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive off satisfied and less apprehensive. One more misfuel correction in Lancashire done well in my mind!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is without question a significant matter to address in a car - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in fuel tank will often result in idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, quite possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both circumstances rather quickly.

You should know that if ever the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will likely be completely wet and useless.

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.
