It was about 7 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were promised a dry night, it had not stopped pouring! Brian and I were sitting there going over the weekend's football, prepared for the 8th fuel drain of the day to come in. Eventually we had a phone call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had gone to the Texaco filling station in Branston and put the wrong fuel in a diesel expensive Honda CR-X rental by mistake. The poor lady was very troubled by the sounds of it, stating "I can not believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm so used to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember I was driving a diesel!" I just advised her to take it easy and not to worry, also that such things do happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a protected position and, because it was no more than a few miles away from where we were, we could get to the customer fairly quickly. The bad fuel was extracted and she was able to go home to the Travelodge she was staying in. Even though we got extremely drenched, it was all worthwhile seeing her drive home calm and less worried. Another fuel drain in Lincolnshire well done in my mind!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination
Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a significant situation to address in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines.
Putting water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol is going to lead to idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both cases pretty easily.
Bear in mind though that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car Lincolnshire - Petrol in Diesel Car Branston
Now I am certainly not excessively excited about running on Sundays, and the other day was no different. I'd just come away from home after eating a superb roast cooked for us by the wife, and I was en route to deal with a fellow after he had filled the wrong fuel in his son's Audi A8. He was only in Branston therefore I was there almost immediately. Just as I pulled up at the rear of the vehicle and got busy draining he explained to me "Praise God! I foolishly had my mind on something else and did not realise I have put diesel in my petrol car. I need to know if I created any problems by simply running it?" I revealed generally there shouldn't be any kind of harm and also I'd personally get the contaminated fuel drained as quickly as possible for him. Needless to say I removed the contaminated fuel from the vehicle and put in the appropriate fuel, and thus another delighted client could continue their journey without hassle. He did not stop thanking me, and this is what helps make carrying out work on weekends in Lincolnshire just that tiny bit better in my opinion!
Wrong Fuel Doctor Branston - Fuel Rescue Branston
A young lady from Branston with a full car of kids in her diesel yellow Cadillac Brougham had put £20 of petrol at the petrol station. She called us sobbing and extremely distraught as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel previously and did not know what could happen to her vehicle because of it. We reassured her that everything should be fine and that she would be back on the road soon. When we arrived she was still upset but while our engineer got to work on the fuel drain she simmered down because she recognised that something could be done and her car wasn't wrecked. She soon enough brightened up and was on her way saying, "I just can't believe my misfortune putting petrol in my diesel car! Especially with the little ones on board."

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.

- 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.

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.
- 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.
