It was around five pm on a Friday and while we were guaranteed a dry night, it had not given up on raining! Ryan and I were relaxing going over the recent football results, ready for the sixth job for the day to arrive. In due time we had a phone call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had gone to the BP petrol station in Wall and put the wrong fuel in her diesel metallic red Audi riolet hire car. She was somewhat agitated it seemed, crying "I just can't believe that I've destroyed the car! I am so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I had forgot that I was running a diesel!" I asked her to take it easy and not to be concerned, also that these things can happen. She managed to move the vehicle to a secure area and, seeing that it was only a few miles from our van, we were able to reach the lady fairly quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed and she was able to return to the Travelodge she was staying at.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, can be an important situation to address in a motor vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel will often result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of fully, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to drain compared to water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can handle both cases rather easily.

Take note though that if ever the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will probably be totally wet and ineffective.

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.
