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


Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel container placed at the back of your premises containing unwanted, useless or contaminated fuel? We're able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few domestic and business properties in Cheshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Whether the fuel storage is an underground tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps a number of drums in an outbuilding, assuming that we can reach it, we can certainly empty it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, can be an important issue to take care of in a vehicle - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel may trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not remedied properly, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain as compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both circumstances quite simply.

Remember however that if the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will probably be completely wet and unusable.

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.
