It was after 10 pm on a Friday and while we were guaranteed a dry day, it hadn't stopped pouring down rain! James and me were sitting there discussing the tennis, ready for the sixth fuel drain to arrive. Before long we had a phone call from a lovely woman on a business excursion who had gone to the Shell filling garage in Dunstall and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel luxury Renault Kangoo lease car. The poor thing was fairly agitated by the sounds of it, crying "I just can't believe I have ruined the car! I am so used to putting unleaded in my petrol car that I totally did not remember I was running a diesel!" I just advised her to settle back and not to worry, plus that such things sadly often happen. She had managed to get the car into a protected space and, seeing as it was just a few minutes away from us, we could arrive at her without delay. The incorrect fuel was removed so she could get back to the Premier Inn she was lodging in. Even though we got fairly drenched, it was all worth the time to see her drive home calm and a lot less anxious. One more job in Staffordshire well done in my mind!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be an important condition to handle in an automobile - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your fuel will result in idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied fully, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to handle both cases rather simply.

Be aware however that if the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the previous one will undoubtedly be completely 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 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.
