It was just before 10 pm on a Friday and though we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't ceased pouring! Brian and I were sitting there going over the rugby rankings, waiting for the seventh fuel drain of the day to come in. In due time we received a call from a girl on a company expedition who had arrived at the Texaco filling garage in Padiham and put petrol in a diesel grass green Mazda B-Series Plus hire car in error. The poor thing was somewhat distressed by the sounds of it, crying "I still can't believe that I have destroyed the car! I am so used to putting petrol in my petrol car I had didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to relax and not to be concerned, also that things like this regrettably often happen. She had managed to get the car to a secure position and, seeing that it was no more than a few miles away from our van, we could find the customer fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could get back to the motel she was living at. Despite the fact we got extremely soaked, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive away calm and much less anxious. Yet another job in Lancashire done well in my mind!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally a significant issue to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in fuel tank can easily result in idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both cases quite quickly.

Take note though that if ever the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the previous one is going to be totally water-logged 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.
