It was around eight pm on a Friday and while we were promised a dry and fresh evening, it had not ceased raining! Ray and me were sitting commenting on the recent footy, ready for the 6th fuel drain for the day to come in. Before long we had a phone call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had pulled into the BP filling garage in Dallington and put petrol in her diesel winter grey Cadillac Fleetwood hire car in error. The unfortunate thing was somewhat distressed by the sounds of it, saying "I can't believe I have destroyed the car! I'm just so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle that I had forgot I was running a diesel!" I just instructed her to settle back and not to worry, plus that things like this unfortunately do happen. She had managed to get the car to a safe area and, seeing that it was only a short distance off from the office, we could get to the lady fairly quickly. The incorrect fuel was drained and she was able to get back to the hotel she was living in. Despite the fact we got fairly wet, it was all worth it seeing her drive off calm and not so stressed. Another job in Northamptonshire well done in my opinion!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely a significant condition to take care of in an automobile - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol can certainly cause idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to resolve both cases very easily.

You should know that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one is going to be completely 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 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.
