It was around six pm on a Tuesday and even though we were promised a dry and fresh afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring! James and I were seated talking over the weekend's sports, ready for the 6th call to arrive. Eventually we had a phone call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had gone to the Esso petrol garage in Whaplode and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel yellow Subaru Outback Sport lease car in error. The unfortunate thing was rather irritated it seemed, crying "I simply can't believe that I have ruined the car! I am so familiar with putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I just told her to settle back and not to be concerned, and that things like this often happen. She was able to maneuver the car into a protected spot and, seeing that it was no more than a few miles off from our van, we could find the lady quickly. The bad fuel was extracted so she was able to get back to the motel she was living in. Despite the fact that we got pretty soaked, it was all rewarding to see her drive home relaxed and less anxious. Another misfuel correction in Lincolnshire done well in my books!

The 3 things you SHOULD know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually an important condition to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol can certainly lead to idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both cases quite easily.

Be aware that if the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will be totally wet and unusable.

Just had a good night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 am on a rainy Sunday and I was off to help an older sweetheart who had put petrol in her diesel partner's Mitsubishi Diamante in Whaplode. I'd been advised she drove away from the filling station forecourt and broken down in a rural road en route to see her godchildren. I got her location punched straight into the TomTom and was with her within an hour or so. I turned up at the location and removed the wrong fuel from the car. While I was working she said to me, "I have been becoming somewhat forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the car taking diesel since I had only purchased it a short while back after my other car, which I had owned for over 25 years, inevitably stopped working". I finished the drain and she offered me a toffee and thanked me for my hard work. Such a delightful Lincolnshire lady!

This was most definitely what is called an unsociable hour to be awake. It was close to 3am and almost noone was around. It had become rather uneventful up to now, and Ryan and I were relaxing reading through a few old papers. It was a rare calm hour in Lincolnshire. It was that calm that when my mobile eventually rang it made me start! The person stated: "I just completed my overnight shift and incredibly poured petrol in my diesel cobalt blue Nissan Pathfinder". I told him to inform us just where the vehicle was and we headed out, getting to him in Whaplode no more than an hour or so later. The wrong fuel was removed from the engine and he said many thanks for arriving so promptly. While we were coming back home we saw two young women at the edge of the highway who looked like they had a flat. So we pulled up to help them change it, to their elation.

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.
