It was about eight pm on a Monday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless night, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Brian and I were sitting there commenting on the recent sports results, at the ready for the sixth call to come in. Finally we got a phone call from a woman on a company expedition who had gone to the BP petrol garage in Drummersdale and put petrol in a diesel dirty red Renault rental by mistake. The poor thing was pretty agitated it seemed, stating "I cannot believe I have messed up the vehicle! I am so familiar with filling my petrol car I completely forgot that I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to settle back and not to fret, and that these things happen. She was able to get the vehicle into a secure area and, since it was just a few miles off from the office, we could arrive at the woman swiftly. The incorrect fuel was drained and she could go home to the hotel she was staying at.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious issue to handle in a vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the fuel can potentially result in idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both cases pretty swiftly.

Take note that so long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will likely be thoroughly wet and unusable.

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.
