It was before six pm on a Thursday and although we were assured a dry day, it hadn't ceased pouring down rain! Mark and I were seated talking about the recent rugby results, waiting around for the seventh call that day to arrive. Before long we had a phone call from a lovely women on a business expedition who had pulled into the BP filling garage in Finsbury and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel buff Mitsubishi Excel hire car in error. She was pretty troubled it seemed, stating "I can not believe I've messed up the car! I am so used to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I totally did not remember I was driving a diesel!" I just instructed her to relax and not to be concerned, and that things like this often happen. She had managed to relocate the vehicle into a protected spot and, as it was just a short distance away from our van, we could find the lady without delay. The wrong fuel was drained so she was able to get back to the Premier Inn she was residing at. Even though we got pretty soaked, it was all worth it to see her drive home calm and a lot less apprehensive. A fuel drain in Islington well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you NEED to know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question an important situation to handle in a car - specifically in modern day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel may trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can handle both circumstances pretty easily.

Take note however that in the event that the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged 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.
