The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important situation to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank may well bring about idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both cases fairly simply.

Bear in mind that whenever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will likely be totally wet and ineffective.

We have been called out to several privately owned and business properties in County Durham to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages.

This was most definitely the graveyard shift. It was about dawn and noone was around. It was pretty uneventful up to now, and Paul and I were sitting around looking through a couple of old newspapers. It was an unusual calm time in County Durham. Actually it was that relaxing that the moment my mobile rang I leaped with surprise! The customer explained: "I've just concluded my evening shift and stupidly poured petrol in my raspberry red Suzuki Grand Vitara in error". I told him to let us know exactly where he was and we set off, reaching him in Medomsley an hour later. The wrong fuel was cleaned from the engine. He thanked us for getting there so quickly. As we were heading back home we spotted two young women at the edge of the road who seemed to have a flat tyre. Accordingly we pulled up to help them change it, much to their elation.

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.
