It was before 6 pm on a Monday and though we were assured a dry afternoon, it had not given up on pouring down rain! Ryan and me were seated there going over the football results, waiting around for the 6th fuel drain of the day to arrive. Inevitably we got the call from a lovely women on a company expedition who had gone to the Tesco petrol garage in Besthorpe and put the wrong fuel in her diesel dark blue Audi 4000CS Quattro lease car. She was somewhat affected by the sounds of it, telling me "I can't believe that I've destroyed the vehicle! I am just so used to filling my petrol vehicle I totally did not remember I was using a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, and that things like this often happen.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a serious situation to handle in a vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the fuel tank is going to cause idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out correctly, potentially damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both cases pretty simply.

You should know that so long as the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will be totally water-logged and useless.

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.

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.
