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


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a serious situation to take care of in an automobile - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol can potentially cause idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both cases pretty swiftly.

Bear in mind however that whenever the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will probably be totally wet and useless.

This was what is called an unsociable hour to be awake. It was about 3:30am and nobody was stirring. It had become quite uneventful thus far, and Paul and I were sitting about perusing a number of old papers. This was an unusual peaceful time in County Durham. It was that relaxing that when the telephone eventually rang it made me start! The person said: "I've only just completed my evening shift and stupidly put the wrong fuel in the green Range Rover in error". I asked him to inform us where he was and we left, ending up in Dean Bank not as much as an hour later. The contaminated fuel was cleaned from the vehicle and he said thanks a lot for coming out so rapidly. As we were returning to the office we found two young women at the side of the highway who seemed to have a flat tyre. So we pulled up and helped them change it, much 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 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.
