Putting the incorrect fuel in your car or truck isn't the only thing that can cause problems. Fuel contaminated with water will also cause your vehicle to run poorly and ultimately stop altogether. The signs stipulated above will also be seen in your engine even if it's only water contamination to either petrol or diesel run engine.

A lot of modern diesel engines utilize AdBlue, a system that lowers the pollution of the engine. The amount of AdBlue added to your vehicle must be of appropriate ratio to avoid further problem. It's for this reason, AdBlue has a separate tank mounted somewhere. If you hire somebody to directly add this to your tank without knowing the right procedure, it's more likely to cause problem to your engine. Again, the signs are very like those described above, and we can put things right for you.

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.
