The 3 things you MUST know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely an important condition to address in an automobile - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in fuel will often lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with fully, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both cases pretty expediently.

Be aware however that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will be totally water-logged and useless.

This was certainly what is called an unsociable time to be on the road. It was close to dawn and nobody was about. It had become fairly quiet until now, and Mark and I were relaxing browsing several old newspapers. That was an uncommon restful time in Somerset. It was that peaceful that the instant the phone ultimately rang I jumped with surprise! The customer on the opposite end stated: "I have just ended my evening shift and foolishly poured petrol in my Ferarri red Kia Sorento". I instructed him to inform us exactly where he was and we hit the road, arriving in Lower Merridge no more than an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was extracted from the engine and he thanked us profusely for coming so fast. While we were coming back home we spotted two young women at the side of the road who looked like they suffered a flat. Accordingly we pulled over to help them change it, to their elation.

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.
