It was before 5 pm on a Tuesday and although we were guaranteed a rainless day, it hadn't stopped pouring! Brian and I were sitting discussing the recent sports results, ready for the 8th call to come in. Before long we received a phone call from a young lady on a business excursion who had arrived at the Texaco filling garage in Elswick Leys and put petrol in her diesel light blue BMW 525 rental by mistake. She was pretty agitated by the sounds of it, stating "I simply can't believe I've ruined the vehicle! I am just so used to putting petrol in my petrol car that I totally forgot I was using a diesel!" I just advised her to calm down and not to worry, and that these things can happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle into a secure position and, seeing that it was only a short distance away from us, we were able to get to the customer fairly quickly. The wrong fuel was drained and she was able to return to the Travelodge she was residing in.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a significant situation to address in an automobile - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel can potentially lead to idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with fully, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both situations very quickly.

Take note that as long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

What a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 on a warm Sunday and I was en route to assist an elder lovely lady after she had put contaminated fuel in her diesel canary yellow Suzuki Grand Vitara in Elswick Leys. I had been advised she had left the petrol station forecourt and pulled up on a country lane en route to see her godchildren. I got her location plugged straight into the Satnav and was on-scene inside an hour or so. I turned up at the vehicle and drained the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. As I was working she said to me, "I'm getting rather forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the car working with diesel since I had only just bought it a week back because my previous car, which I had had for more than 30 years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I completed the drain and she gave me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. What a delightful Lancashire woman!

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.
