Brian and me were sitting there talking about the recent sports rankings, waiting around for the seventh call to arrive. In due time we received the phone call from a lady on a company expedition who had arrived at the Tesco petrol garage in St Helier and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel blue Hyundai Scoupe hire car by mistake. She was quite affected by the sounds of it, saying "I simply can't believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I am just so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I completely did not remember I was running a diesel!" We asked her to calm down and not to be concerned, also that such things unfortunately happen.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, can be an important matter to take care of in an automobile - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel can easily trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to remove as compared with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both circumstances fairly expediently.

Bear in mind though that whenever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and ineffective.

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.
