It was before 6 pm on a Monday and though we were assured a dry afternoon, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! James and me were resting going over the rugby, prepared for the seventh fuel drain to come in. In due time we had a phone call from a woman on a business excursion who had arrived at the Esso filling garage in Eaton Constantine and put the wrong fuel in her diesel beautiful VW GTI hire car in error. The unfortunate lady was pretty affected apparently, stating "I can not believe I've messed up the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling my petrol car I had forgot I was running a diesel!"

The 3 things you NEED to know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a significant condition to address in a vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel will trigger idling issues, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, in some cases ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both situations rather swiftly.

You should know that if the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will be totally wet and ineffective.

A driver from Eaton Constantine with a full car of kids in her diesel canary yellow VW Golf had filled her vehicle with £42 of petrol at the petrol station. She phoned us sobbing and extremely distraught as she had never put petrol in a diesel car previously and did not know what could happen to her car because of it. We told her that everything would be okay and that she would be back ready to go very quickly. When we got there she was still upset but while our fuel drainer got to work on the fuel drain she calmed down because she discovered that something could be done and her car wasn't wrecked. She soon enough cheered up and was on her way saying, "I simply can't believe my luck putting petrol in my diesel car! Especially with the little ones on board."

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.
