The 3 things you HAVE TO know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question an important matter to deal with in an automobile - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel will likely cause idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both cases pretty swiftly.

Remember however that if ever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one will likely be thoroughly wet and useless.

This was most definitely the graveyard shift. It was close to 2:30 in the morning and hardly anyone was stirring. It had become fairly quiet thus far, and me and John were loafing around looking through a couple of old papers. This was a rare peaceful moment in Somerset. It was indeed so calm that the moment the telephone ultimately rang I jumped! The voice on the opposite end stated: "I have only just finished my overnight shift and incredibly put petrol in the diesel silver Audi V8 by mistake". We instructed him to let us know where he was and we headed out, reaching him in Lopen no more than half an hour later. The contaminated fuel was removed from the car. He said thanks a lot for coming out so rapidly. While we were heading back home we spotted two ladies on the edge of the street who appeared to have a puncture. So we stopped and helped them change it, to their delight.

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.
