It was just before 7 pm on a Monday and while we were guaranteed a rainless evening, it had not stopped raining! Brian and me were resting there commenting on the recent tennis, ready for the sixth call of the day to come in. In due time we got a call from a lovely woman on a company excursion who had arrived at the BP petrol station in Tixall and put the wrong fuel in a diesel racing green Mazda B-Series rental car. She was somewhat distressed it seemed, crying "I simply can't believe that I have destroyed the car! I'm just so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car I completely did not remember I was driving a diesel!"

The 3 things you SHOULD know about a Misfuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually a serious situation to address in a motor vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your fuel is likely to result in idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both circumstances very quickly.

You should know that whenever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will undoubtedly be totally wet and useless.

Marine Fuel Drains

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 VAT 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.
