It was just before 5 pm on a Monday and despite the fact that we were promised a rainless afternoon, it had not given up on raining! Brian and I were sitting there discussing the rugby results, at the ready for the seventh job for the day to arrive. Eventually we had the call from a lovely women on a company trip who had pulled into the BP petrol station in Dursley and put petrol in her diesel beautiful Mazda B-Series rental in error. The poor lady was pretty troubled apparently, saying "I still cannot believe that I have messed up the car! I'm so familiar with filling my petrol vehicle I completely didn't remember I was operating a diesel!" I told her to take it easy and not to be concerned, also that things like this sadly can happen. She was able to move the car to a secure area and, as it was only a few minutes from where we were, we were able to arrive at her without delay. The incorrect fuel was drained so she could once again go back to the motel she was living in. Although we got thoroughly wet, it was all worthwhile to see her drive away calm and much less stressed. One more fuel drain in Wiltshire done well in my mind!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious issue to address in a car - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol will contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both situations pretty expediently.

Remember that in the event that the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one is going to be totally wet and useless.

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.
