It was around 8 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were guaranteed a dry and fresh evening, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Ray and me were sitting commenting on the weekend's footy, at the ready for the sixth call that day to come in. Eventually we received a phone call from a lovely women on a business trip who had pulled into the Esso filling station in Restrop and put petrol in a diesel expensive BMW 530 rental by mistake. She was rather distressed by the sounds of it, saying "I just can't believe I have ruined the car! I'm just so accustomed to putting petrol in my petrol vehicle that I completely forgot I was operating a diesel!" We instructed her to settle back and not to fret, and also that things like this sadly often happen. She managed to move the vehicle to a protected space and, since it was no more than a few minutes away from the office, we could find the woman rather quickly. The wrong fuel was extracted so she was able to once again go back to the hotel she was lodging at. Despite the fact we got very drenched, it was all worth the time seeing her drive home satisfied and less worried. Another fuel drain in Wiltshire well done in my mind!

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is without question a significant condition to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel tank is going to cause idling problems, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both circumstances quite swiftly.

Take note though that if the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and unusable.

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.
