Brian and I were resting going over the golf rankings, prepared for the next call that day to arrive. Before long we got the call from a woman on a company excursion who had arrived at the Shell filling station in Duston and filled petrol in her diesel brother's Hyundai Sonata rental car. The poor thing was rather troubled by the sounds of it, telling me "I can not believe I have destroyed the vehicle! I am so used to putting unleaded in my petrol car I completely forgot I was operating a diesel!" We told her to calm down and not to be concerned, plus that things like this happen.

The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!


Out of Fuel Service

Run out of fuel in Duston (out of gas - as an American would say)? We perform a comprehensive Northamptonshire Out of Fuel Service. We can easily get out to re-fill your car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or perhaps even at home. Our technicians can come to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (purchased at pump prices) to fill your vehicle. They are also able to deal with the common problems which may accompany running out of fuel - including airlocks, vehicle failing to start, or maybe flat batteries because of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant issue to handle in a car - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol can potentially cause idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out properly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain when compared with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both situations fairly expediently.

Remember that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one will probably be thoroughly wet and unusable.

That was an unusual quiet moment in Northamptonshire. Actually it was that quiet that the instant the phone eventually rang I jumped!

I got him to let us know just where the vehicle was and we hit the road, getting to him in Duston only an hour later.

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.
