The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant issue to address in a vehicle - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in fuel tank will bring about idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both circumstances fairly simply.

You should know that if ever the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Wrong Fuel in Car in NN7 Postcode - Cogenhoe Misfueling

Just had a fantastic night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 am on a warm Saturday and I was on my way to assist an elder woman after she put petrol in her diesel cobalt blue Renault in Cogenhoe. She informed us that she had left the filling station forecourt and broken down in a rural lane along the way to see her grandchildren. I popped her location in the TomTom and arrived within an hour. I got to the vehicle and extracted the contaminated fuel from the car. While I was doing it she said to me, "I have been getting somewhat forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle needing diesel seeing that I had only acquired it a few days ago when my previous car, which I owned for more than 30 years, eventually gave up the ghost". I got the drain done and she offered me a toffee and said thank you. Such a lovely Northamptonshire lady!

A customer working in Cogenhoe contacted us shortly after she had tried to get her misfueled vehicle to her office. She had put the wrong fuel in her diesel spotless Nissan JUKE and, like many people before her, imagined that she could basically fill up her tank with diesel and it would run okay. The engine was chugging and then it stopped when she reached the the front of her work. We immediately went to work on the fuel drain following her call and had it fixed inside an hour whilst she was at the office. She came out afterwards and thanked us saying, "I'm extremely relieved you sorted my vehicle."

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 VAT 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.
