The 3 things you HAVE TO know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a significant matter to take care of in a vehicle - especially in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel may well lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both circumstances quite quickly.

Bear in mind though that as long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will likely be completely wet and unusable.

Waste Fuel Removal

Have an old fuel tank at the rear of your premises full of old, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and industrial premises in Bedfordshire to deal with draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to get rid of and recycle waste fuel safely and legally.

Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a portable bowser, or perhaps a few containers in a garage, if we are able to get to it, we can certainly drain it.

What a fantastic night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a gloomy Monday and I was off to help an older sweetheart who put petrol in her diesel modern BMW 530 in Pertenhall. I had been advised she drove away from the petrol station and pulled up on a backwater road along the way to pay a visit to her family. I got the location plugged into the TomTom and was on-scene within an hour. I turned up at the vehicle and removed the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. As I was doing the work she told me, "I'm getting fairly absent-minded in my old age and didn't remember about the vehicle needing diesel since I'd only purchased it a few days ago right after my other one, which I'd had for about twenty years, inevitably broke down". I finished the job and she gave me a toffee and said thanks a lot. What a delightful Bedfordshire woman!

We recently received a phone call about a motorist who had put the wrong fuel in his well worn Citron DS4 in Pertenhall. He had broken down on the road. "It was incredible how fast you were in having someone out to help me when I erroneously unleaded in my diesel car. Thank you ever so much". Of course we got there promptly and flushed the engine after flushing all the unleaded from the diesel tank. On arrival the technician said the client was fuming, but was grinning his face off when we finished.

This was exactly the graveyard shift. It was about 3:30am and hardly anyone was about. It was fairly quiet until now, and me and Paul were relaxing browsing a few old articles. It was an unusual calm moment in Bedfordshire. It was that peaceful that when the telephone eventually rang it made me jump! The person stated: "I've only just finished my evening shift and foolishly poured petrol in the diesel well worn Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class". I got him to inform us exactly where he was and we set off, reaching him in Pertenhall 30 minutes later. The wrong fuel was extracted from the car and he said thank you for coming so quickly. As we were going back to the office we noticed two young ladies on the edge of the road who looked like they suffered a flat tyre. As a result we stopped and helped them change it, to their elation.

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.
