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


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be a serious condition to take care of in a vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol will often contribute to idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both circumstances very quickly.

Keep in mind that if ever the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will likely be totally wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to access the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have undertaken numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.

We recently received a phone call from a motorist who put the wrong fuel in his dark blue Mazda B2500 in Compton Valence. He had ground to a halt on the road. "I couldn't believe how quick you people were in sending a technician out to aid me after I mistakenly unleaded in my diesel car. Thank you ever so much".

This was certainly the graveyard shift. It was roughly dawn and hardly anyone was about. It was fairly dead so far, and John and I were sitting around browsing a few old papers. That was an unusual restful moment in Dorset. Actually it was indeed so peaceful that the moment the telephone inevitably rang I jumped with surprise! The person on the other end explained: "I concluded my night shift and foolishly put the wrong fuel in my son's Mercedes SLK-Class by mistake". I told him to inform us exactly where he was located and we hit the road, getting to him in Compton Valence no more than an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was removed from the engine and he said thanks a lot for showing up so quickly. As we were returning to the office we saw two ladies on the edge of the street who looked like they had a puncture. Obviously we pulled up to change it, 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.
