Inevitably we received the call from a girl on a business excursion who had gone to the Shell petrol station in Pound and put the wrong fuel in her diesel baby blue Cadillac DTS rental car in error. She was pretty troubled by the sounds of it, crying "I can't believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I'm so used to putting petrol in my petrol car I totally forgot that I was driving a diesel!" I asked her to calm down and not to fret, and also that such things sadly can happen.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

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

Having water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel is going to contribute to idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with properly, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to remove than water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both situations quite simply.

Bear in mind though that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will be totally wet and unusable.

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.
