The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases an important situation to address in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your fuel tank will cause idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out as compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both situations fairly easily.

Keep in mind that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one is going to be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel Assist Pitcot - Wrong Fuel in Car Pitcot

I'd had a great evening cycling on my off day and was feeling contented the following working day as I was on the way to aid a new couple away in Pitcot. They broken down after filling petrol in their rust red Porsche 911, and the car was about half an hour's drive away. I emerged at their location and laughed as I heard to the girl telling her spouse off for turning out to be so foolish. "How could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she told him. I tried to clarify that this problem takes place regularly in Somerset and that it's actually absolutely nothing to worry about, but he all the same got an earful. I felt sorry for the boy. Anyhow, I drained out all of the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave it some proper fuel. While they drove off I mouthed goodbye and considered what her indoors would tell me if perhaps I did the same thing... I would under no circumstances live it down!

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.
