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


Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to a vehicle parking spot we are able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have done many fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually a serious matter to address in a vehicle - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel tank will produce idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to drain than water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both situations quite swiftly.

Keep in mind that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will likely be completely water-logged and unusable.

Ahhh, that was a good night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 in the morning on a rainy Sunday and I was off to help an old sweetheart after she had put contaminated fuel in her diesel grass green BMW 8 Series in Prestwood. I'd been advised she had left the petrol station and stranded in a rural lane on the way to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I punched her location in the TomTom and arrived in less than an hour. I turned up at the vehicle and extracted the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. As I was doing the work she explained, "Now I'm becoming fairly absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the car taking diesel because I'd just acquired it a short while back when my old one, which I had for in excess of 25 years, finally gave up the ghost". I got the drain done and she gave me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. What a lovely Buckinghamshire woman!

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.
