The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be an important issue to address in a car - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel can certainly lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out fully, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both situations pretty simply.

Keep in mind that any time the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a car parking spot we can access the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards across the country.

This was exactly what we call an unsociable time to be on the road. It was around dawn and nobody was stirring. It was fairly dead until now, and Ray and I were sitting around reading a few old magazines. It was an uncommon quiet moment in Suffolk. It was in fact that relaxing that when the telephone rang it made me start! The person stated: "I've only just ended my night shift and stupidly filled the wrong fuel in my diesel partner's Vauxhall Astra in error". I asked him to inform us exactly where the vehicle was and we headed out, reaching him in Whepstead under an hour or so later. The wrong fuel was cleaned from the motor and he thanked us profusely for showing up so quickly. As we were coming back home we spotted two young ladies on the side of the highway who looked like they suffered a puncture. Accordingly we got out and helped them change it, much to their elation.

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 VA 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.
