Eventually we received a phone call from a girl on a company expedition who had gone to the Esso petrol garage in Outwoods and filled petrol in a diesel bright yellow Skoda Fabia rental in error. She was pretty irritated it seemed, stating "I cannot believe that I've ruined the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling my petrol car that I totally did not remember I was driving a diesel!"

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question an important matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol may result in idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain compared to water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both situations very simply.

Remember though that whenever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Wrong Fuel Assist Outwoods - Wrong Fuel in Car Outwoods

I had appreciated a great afternoon fishing on my off day and felt pleased the following day as I set off to assist a new family vacationing in Outwoods. They had conked out after inserting diesel in their classic Austin Mini Cooper, and were approximately an hour's travel away. I turned up at their car and laughed to myself as I listened to the woman telling her hubby off for being so silly. "How could you even be able to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I wanted to tell her that this problem happens all the time in Staffordshire and that it is nothing to worry about, nonetheless he all the same had an earful by his better half. Unfortunate guy. In any case, I removed all the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some proper fuel. While they drove down the road I waved good-bye and wondered what my wife would do to me if perhaps I did the exact same thing... I'd personally never ever live it down!

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.

• 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.
