It was after seven pm on a Monday and even though we were guaranteed a rainless afternoon, it hadn't ceased raining! Paul and I were relaxing there going over the recent golf, waiting around for the sixth job that day to come in. In due time we got the call from a lovely women on a business excursion who had arrived at the Texaco filling station in Lower Burrow and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel friend's Mitsubishi Lancer rental car in error. She was pretty agitated it seemed, saying "I still can't believe that I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember I was using a diesel!" I told her to calm down and not to fret, also that things like this sadly often happen. She had managed to move the vehicle to a safe area and, as it was just a few minutes off from us, we were able to find the woman right away. The incorrect fuel was removed and she could return to the Premier Inn she was living in. Despite the fact that we got really drenched, it was all worth it to see her drive away relaxed and much less anxious. A misfuel correction in Somerset well done in my mind!

The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually a serious situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel may result in idling difficulties, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed properly, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can resolve both circumstances fairly easily.

Take note however that whenever the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

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.
