The 3 things you NEED to know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, can be an important situation to take care of in a vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel can potentially lead to idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both situations pretty simply.

Keep in mind that as long as the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will be totally water-logged and unusable.

We a few weeks ago had a phone call from a driver who had put the incorrect fuel in his mustard yellow Ford Escort in Brotherlee. He had conked out on the road. "After adding unleaded in my diesel car I didn't recognise the dilemma till it stopped working. You drained the wrong fuel from my car and had it working once again. I was happy due to both your call-out time and your value for money". Needless to say we were on-scene rapidly and purged the engine after flushing all of the contaminated fuel from the diesel tank. On arrival our technician said the customer was raging, but was pretty happy after the fuel drain.

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 VA 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.
