It was around seven pm on a Friday and though we were guaranteed a rainless day, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! Ray and I were resting there going over the footy rankings, at the ready for the 6th telephone call for the day to arrive. In due time we received the call from a lady on a business trip who had arrived at the Esso petrol station in Embleton and filled petrol in a diesel dad's Ford Focus rental car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was somewhat affected it seemed, telling me "I cannot believe that I have ruined the vehicle! I am just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle that I completely didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just advised her to relax and not to worry, and also that these things often happen. She had managed to get the vehicle into a secure area and, seeing as it was no more than a few miles from where we were, we could find the lady fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was extracted so she could go home to the Premier Inn she was living in. Despite the fact we got fairly wet, it was all rewarding to see her drive away satisfied and less stressed. Another job in Northumberland well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be an important condition to handle in an automobile - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol can potentially trigger idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of than water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both cases fairly easily.

Take note however that in the event that the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will likely be completely wet and useless.

I got her location plugged straight into the Satnav and arrived inside an hour. I got to the vehicle and removed the wrong fuel in the car car. Whilst I was doing the work she told me, "Now I'm becoming quite absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the vehicle using diesel since I'd only purchased it several days back after my other car, which I had had for over thirty years, finally died".

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.
