The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Marine Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to an automobile parking bay we should be able to access the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually a serious condition to address in a vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel may well contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of than water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both cases rather easily.

Take note though that as long as the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and unusable.

This was exactly an unsociable time to be on the road. It was about dawn and almost noone was about. It had been rather dead so far, and me and John were loafing around perusing a few old magazines. That was a rare quiet moment in East Riding of Yorkshire. Actually it was in fact that quiet that the instant the telephone finally rang it made me start! The person on the other end explained: "I have ended my evening shift and foolishly filled petrol in the deep grey Ford Focus ST". I told him to inform us exactly where he was and we hit the road, ending up in Owthorne an hour later. The incorrect fuel was taken out from the engine and he thanked us for coming so fast. As we were going back home we spotted two young ladies at the side of the highway who appeared to have a flat. As a result we pulled over and helped them change it, much to their delight.

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.
