Eventually we got a call from a lady on a company trip who had gone to the Esso petrol garage in Conock and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel compact Volvo S80 hire car.

The 3 things you SHOULD know about Wrong Fuel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a significant issue to handle in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the fuel can certainly lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not remedied fully, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both situations rather simply.

Keep in mind however that if the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will likely be totally wet and useless.

Waste Fuel Removal

We have been called out to several private and industrial properties in Wiltshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages.

No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a mobile bowser, or even a few containers in a storage shed, as long as we can get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Conock

We recently received a phone call about a motorist who put the wrong fuel in his maroon Peugeot 207 in Conock. He had broken down on the road. "After inserting petrol in my diesel car I didn't notice the dilemma until we stopped working. You removed the wrong fuel from my car and got it working once again. I was amazed due to both your speed and your pricing". Needless to say we arrived on the scene promptly and purged the engine after flushing all of the wrong fuel from the diesel tank. The motorist was over the moon by the time we were done and he drove away satisfied.

This was certainly what we call the night shift. It was close to 3 in the morning and nobody was stirring. It had been quite dead until now, and John and I were relaxing perusing a couple of old newspapers. This was a rare restful hour in Wiltshire. Actually it was in fact that tranquil that the moment the phone rang I leaped with surprise! The person told me: "I've finished my night shift and foolishly filled the wrong fuel in the diesel friend's VW Tiguan in error". We told him to tell us where exactly he was located and we set off, arriving in Conock half an hour later. The fuel was taken out from the vehicle. He said thanks for arriving so quickly. While we were heading back to the office we saw two young women at the side of the road who seemed like they suffered a flat. Accordingly we stopped to help them change it, much to their delight.

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.
