Eventually we got a call from a girl on a business expedition who had arrived at the BP filling station in Little Dunham and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel spotless Mercedes CLK-Class lease car by mistake. She was quite troubled it seemed, stating "I just can't believe I've ruined the vehicle! I am so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol vehicle I totally did not remember that I was operating a diesel!"

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be an important matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol can trigger idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed effectively, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain than water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both situations very easily.

Bear in mind though that whenever the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

I enjoyed a fantastic afternoon hiking during my afternoon off and was feeling contented the following morning as I headed out to aid a young family who were on vacation in Little Dunham. They'd conked out after adding diesel into their rugged Mercedes-Benz C-Class, and they were approximately half an hour's drive away. I emerged at their position and smirked as I listened to the woman chastising her man for turning out to be so stupid. "Precisely how could you possibly manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I attempted to clarify that this takes place constantly in Norfolk and that it's actually nothing to get worried about, nonetheless he yet still got an ear bashing. Unlucky chap. In any case, I removed the wrong fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave them some appropriate fuel. Watching while they drove away I waved good bye and pondered on what my missus would tell me if perhaps I made the same error... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!

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.
