What to consider in case you have put wrong fuel in vehicle

After refueling your tank, your vehicle may start showing some signs but you might not be able to grasp them all. Nevertheless, if you were driving, and suddenly you observe that your car is emitting too much smoke through the exhaust and your engine is sputtering abnormally while the car loses power gradually regardless of how much energy you are applying on the accelerator and eventually comes to a halt, then there is little doubt that you are facing a wrong fuel in your car issue.

The 3 things you MUST know about fuel contamination!



Now that you are aware of the signs of wrong fuel in a car, or have experienced it, then you will try to be more cautious in future and be certain of not making the mistake.

But there are means in which you can avoid being in similar situation once more and they include not being in a rush, concentrating when filling up, and avoiding being in a strange car which you are not used to traveling in.

Presence of water in fuel is another issue

You should note that the contamination of fuel by water is another issue that can cause the same signs described above. It does not matter whether your car runs on diesel or petrol, water can also cause it to work roughly and ultimately stop. So you should also be aware of it.

The running of the engine is commonly improved using a diesel system additive called AdBlue. It is generally administered incorrectly, as such, it is significant that it is done by somebody who knows how to use it. Or else, it would cause troubles and problems to your vehicle. To avoid any problems, AdBlue should be contained in a separate tank. But it is very possible to encounter wrong AdBlue usage, especially if the additive is added directly to the fuel or added by someone who is not aware of the process.

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.
