It was before 8 pm on a Wednesday and even though we were promised a dry evening, it had not given up on pouring down rain! Ryan and I were relaxing there talking over the recent rugby results, waiting around for the sixth telephone call that day to come in. Inevitably we received a call from a young lady on a company trip who had pulled into the BP filling garage in Cookley and put petrol in her diesel gorgeous Mazda626 lease car by mistake. The unfortunate lady was very troubled it seemed, stating "I simply cannot believe I've messed up the car! I am just so used to filling my petrol car that I completely didn't remember that I was using a diesel!" I instructed her to relax and not to fret, and that such things sadly often happen. She managed to maneuver the car into a safe position and, as it was no more than a few miles away from the office, we were able to arrive at the lady without delay. The bad fuel was taken out so she could go home to the hotel she was staying at. Although we got fairly soaked, it was all worth the time seeing her drive off relaxed and a lot less worried. A fuel drain in Worcestershire done well in my books!

The 3 things you NEED to know about fuel contamination!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a significant situation to address in a motor vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel is likely to cause idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain than water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can take care of both circumstances pretty simply.

Be aware however that if the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

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.
