Before long we had a phone call from a young lady on a business trip who had pulled into the Esso filling garage in Collins Green and filled the wrong fuel in her diesel grey Mercedes CLS-Class hire car. She was somewhat agitated it seemed, stating "I can not believe that I have wrecked the car! I am so used to filling my petrol car that I had didn't remember I was operating a diesel!"

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question an important condition to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel tank can lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both circumstances very expediently.

You should know however that if ever the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one is going to be completely 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.
