Inevitably we received a phone call from a woman on a business expedition who had pulled into the Tesco filling station in Bowden Hill and put petrol in her diesel husband's Ford C-MAX Hybrid lease car in error. She was pretty affected apparently, stating "I still cannot believe I have ruined the car! I am so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I totally didn't remember that I was using a diesel!"

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is definitely an important condition to address in a vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank can certainly bring about idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied properly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove when compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both circumstances fairly quickly.

Remember however that as long as the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged 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.
