The 3 things you NEED to know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question an important matter to handle in a vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the fuel tank may produce idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied correctly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out than water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can deal with both cases quite expediently.

Remember though that whenever the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and unusable.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near to an automobile parking bay we will be able to access the tanks and remove the fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.


Wrong Fuel in Car in CM24 Postcode - Bentfield Green Misfueling

Just had a great night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 on a warm Saturday and we were on my way to help an elder sweetheart who put the wrong fuel in her diesel friend's Skoda Fabia in Bentfield Green. She told us that she had left the petrol station and stranded along a country road en route to see her grandchildren. I got the location plugged in the Satnav and was on-scene in less than 60 minutes. I turned up at the vehicle and drained the wrong fuel out of the car. As I was working she said to me, "Now I'm getting relatively forgetful in my old age and forgot about the vehicle taking diesel seeing that I had only just got it a short while back after my old car, which I'd had for about twenty years, inevitably died". I finished the drain and she presented me a peppermint and thanked me for my efforts. What a precious Essex lady!

We told her that everything should be fine and that she would be back ready to go quickly. When we got there she was still upset but while our fuel drainer started work on the fuel drain she calmed down since she noticed that something could be done and her car wasn't unfixable.

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.
