The 3 things you HAVE TO know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious condition to handle in a car - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank can potentially produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove than water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to resolve both situations very simply.

Take note though that as long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got an old fuel reservoir laying at the rear of the garden with unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We are able to assist you to dispose of it. We have been called out to quite a few privately owned and commercial premises in Derbyshire to deal with removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps numerous drums in a storage shed, assuming that we are able to access it, we could certainly empty it for you.


Wrong Fuel in Car in DE6 Postcode - Thorpe Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a quality night's sleep! 7:30 in the morning on a warm Tuesday and I was off to assist an older lady who put the wrong fuel in her diesel sombre grey Mercedes Sprinter 2500 in Thorpe. I had been told she had driven away from the filling station and stranded along a rural road on the way to pay a visit to her grandchildren. I plugged the location into the TomTom and got there inside 60 minutes. I turned up at the vehicle and extracted the contaminated fuel in the car car. While I was doing it she explained, "I have been becoming rather forgetful in my old age and forgot about the car taking diesel as I had only just bought it a short while back because my former one, which I owned for about twenty years, eventually broke down". I finished the drain and she gifted me a Murray mint and said thank you. What a delightful Derbyshire lady!

Wrong Fuel Assist Thorpe - Wrong Fuel in Car Thorpe

I'd had a perfect afternoon golfing on my off day and felt delighted with myself the following morning as I was on the way to assist a new couple on holiday in Thorpe. They'd conked out after filling the wrong fuel in their canary yellow Toyota Corolla, and were roughly an hour away. I emerged at their location and smiled as I listened to the lady berating her man for actually being so silly. "Just how could you conceivably manage to fill the car up with the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I wanted to tell her that this situation takes place on daily basis in Derbyshire and that it's nothing to be anxious about, but he yet still had his ear bent. I felt genuine sympathy for the chap. Anyways, I removed the contaminated fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled it up with the correct fuel. Watching as they drove away I shouted good-bye and thought about what my wife would ask me if I did the same thing... I'd personally never ever hear the end of it!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Thorpe

It can't be fun breaking down in a car full of the incorrect fuel on the street. Our most recent customer who filled her car with the incorrect fuel (apple green Saab 9-3) in Thorpe had precisely this kind of dilemma: "You may already know that I incorrectly filled my petrol car with diesel recently. I was so concerned about the wrong fuel in my car that I was actually in tears. And yet I didn't need to worry seeing that you were outstanding in sorting it out."

Wrong Fuel Doctor Thorpe - Fuel Rescue Thorpe

A young lady driving in Thorpe contacted us after she had managed to get her wrong fueled automobile to work. She had filled unleaded in her diesel shiny Land Rover Discovery and, like plenty prior to her, assumed that she would be able to just fill up her tank with diesel and it would be fine. The vehicle was spluttering and then it died when she got to the the front of her office. We promptly went to work on the fuel drain following her call and had it sorted in 60 minutes whilst she was working. She came out later on and thanked us saying, "I'm extremely glad you fixed my vehicle."

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 VAT 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.
