It was after ten pm on a Saturday and while we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it hadn't stopped pouring! Mark and I were resting there talking over the recent tennis results, waiting around for the 8th telephone call that day to arrive. In due time we had a phone call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had arrived at the Tesco filling garage in Cleeton St Mary and put the wrong fuel in a diesel luxury Ford Escort rental. The unfortunate thing was somewhat affected it seemed, crying "I simply can't believe that I have messed up the car! I'm just so accustomed to filling up my petrol vehicle I had forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I just instructed her to settle back and not to worry, also that such things happen. She was able to relocate the vehicle into a safe area and, as it was only a few miles from the office, we were able to arrive at the woman without delay. The wrong fuel was cleaned up and removed and she could once again go back to the Travelodge she was staying at. Even though we got thoroughly wet, it was all rewarding to see her drive away contented and a lot less stressed. Another job in Shropshire done well in my books!

The 3 things you HAVE TO know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important issue to take care of in a car - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel can potentially cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both cases very simply.

Keep in mind however that if the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

A motorist driving in Cleeton St Mary contacted us after she had managed to get her wrong fueled automobile to her office. She had filled petrol in her diesel metallic green Kia Soul and, like plenty before her, assumed that she would be able to simply fill her tank with diesel and it would be okay. The car was spluttering and then it cut out when she arrived at the the front of her work. We immediately went to work on the fuel drain after she called and had it resolved within an hour or so whilst she was working. She came outside later on and thanked us stating, "I'm really delighted you sorted my car."

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.
