All that said, you will most likely be more cautious in future, now that you have experienced putting the wrong fuel in your car. From now on, be aware of those common causes of putting the incorrect fuel in your car:

  • Being in a hurry or flustered
  • Out of concentration because you are on autopilot
  • Being in a car you aren't used to - borrowing or hiring a car

Contamination of fuel by water also results in the above signs.

A sputtering engine with very low power and too much smoke from the exhaust with an eventual stop are also indicators of water contamination. It will make your car behave abnormally and ultimately stops regardless of whether it uses diesel or petrol thus you should also suspect it if you find yourself in a situation of doubt.

The running of the engine is generally improved making use of a diesel system additive referred to as AdBlue. But it can only be used by individuals who know how to use it properly. Or else, it would cause troubles and problems to your car. To avoid any problems, AdBlue should be contained in a separate tank. When somebody who is inexperienced in administering AdBlue correctly, it is very common that they miss the mark.

Such a problem is also shown by the vehicle not running smoothly hence reduced power and an eventual stoppage. Good news is we are always willing to help. Our technicians are not only experienced on how to deal with this problem but also on how to solve the problem of wrong fuel and water contamination.


Flammable materials need not just adequate expertise, but also a variety of relevant tools to manage them appropriately. Fuel for instance, can ignite easily, turning a small problem into a tragic one.

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 anywhere in West Yorkshire to 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.
