The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be a serious matter to address in a car - particularly in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol will likely produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, potentially ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both situations very quickly.

You should know though that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

They broken down after inserting diesel in their spotless Ford Aspire, and the car was close to an hour away. I emerged at their location and laughed as I listened to the gal berating her spouse for turning out to be so confused. "Precisely how could you conceivably be able to fill the car up with the wrong fuel?" she told him. I attempted to explain that this situation goes on everyday in County Durham and that it is nothing to worry about, nonetheless he yet still got an ear bashing. Unlucky chap. Anyhow, I drained out all of the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and filled them up with the proper fuel. While they drove away I waved good bye and pondered on what my missus would say to me if ever I made the exact same blunder... I would personally under no circumstances live it down!

Wrong Fuel in Car County Durham - Petrol in Diesel Car Middle Side

Now I am not overly inclined to doing work weekends, and a while back was no different. I'd only just departed the wife and kids following a magnificent dinner prepared for me by the better half, and I was off to help a fellow because he put the incorrect petrol in his red Volvo V70. He was located in Middle Side thus it wasn't a long time before I got to him. As I arrived behind the vehicle and got busy draining he told me "Praise the Almighty! I incredibly had my attention on other considerations and did not perceive I'd put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Have I caused harm by starting it?" I stated there should not be problems and that I'd personally get the contaminated fuel drained as soon as possible for him. As expected I removed the fuel from the vehicle and filled up with the appropriate fuel, and yet another satisfied client had the ability to continue on his ride without fuss. He could not stop saying thanks to me, and that is exactly what tends to make operating on weekends in County Durham just a little bit less painful to me!

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.
