The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely an important issue to deal with in a car - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel can easily result in idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, potentially damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to drain compared to water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both cases rather quickly.

Bear in mind that if ever the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one is going to be completely water-logged and ineffective.

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:

    • 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.

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.
