It was about 8 pm on a Tuesday and though we were assured a rainless night, it hadn't stopped raining! Paul and I were sitting commenting on the weekend's footy, prepared for the 6th job to arrive. Inevitably we received the call from a lovely woman on a company trip who had gone to the Esso filling garage in Yoxall and put the wrong fuel in a diesel racing green Isuzu Impulse lease car. She was rather irritated apparently, telling me "I still cannot believe I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm so accustomed to putting unleaded in my petrol vehicle that I had didn't remember I was running a diesel!" I just told her to calm down and not to worry, also that these things regrettably can happen. She had managed to move the car into a secure area and, seeing that it was only a few minutes away from the office, we were able to arrive at the customer rather quickly. The bad fuel was extracted so she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was staying in. Despite the fact that we got very wet, it was all worth the effort to watch her drive off contented and a lot less stressed. Yet another job in Staffordshire well done in my opinion!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious situation to deal with in an automobile - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel will often result in idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not remedied correctly, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both situations rather expediently.

You should know however that if the vehicle was run with the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

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.
