The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant matter to address in a vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol can certainly lead to idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out as compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to solve both situations quite simply.

Remember however that any time the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will be totally water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to an automobile parking bay we can access the fuel storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.


Wrong Fuel in Car in SL6 Postcode - Cookham Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a good night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 on a rainy Monday and we were on the way to assist an elder sweetheart who had put petrol in her diesel khaki green BMW X6 M in Cookham. I'd been advised she had left the petrol station and pulled up along a backwater road on route to see her godchildren. I popped the location in the Satnav and was on-scene in less than an hour or so. I got to the location and removed the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. As I was doing the work she told me, "I have been becoming somewhat absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the vehicle needing diesel since I had only just acquired it several days ago right after my other one, which I had had for over thirty years, eventually died on me". I finished the job and she gifted me a peppermint and said thanks. Such a pleasant Berkshire lady!

This really was the night shift. It was about dawn and nobody was stirring. It had become fairly uneventful so far, and Mark and I were loafing about browsing some old articles. This was an uncommon tranquil hour in Berkshire. It was in fact so tranquil that the moment my mobile eventually rang it made me start! The motorist told me: "I've concluded my evening shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in a racing green Peugeot 307". I told him to tell us where the vehicle was situated and we left, ending up in Cookham no more than 30 minutes later. The fuel was removed from the motor and he thanked us for coming so rapidly. As we were heading back to the office we found two women at the side of the road who seemed to have a flat. As a result we got out to change it, to their delight.

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.
