The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Marine Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked near to an automobile parking spot we are able to access the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've undertaken quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is without question a significant matter to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel can easily lead to idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not remedied properly, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to resolve both cases fairly expediently.

Remember however that so long as the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will probably be completely wet and unusable.

I'd had a fantastic afternoon cycling during my off day and felt delighted with myself the following working day as I headed out to help a young couple who were on holiday in Horsepools. They broken down after adding diesel in their boss' BMW Alpina B7, and they were around an hour away. I turned up at their location and smiled to myself as I listened to the woman telling her spouse off for actually being so silly. "How could you even find a way to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I attempted to clarify that this situation comes to pass everyday in Gloucestershire and that it's nothing to be concerned about, nevertheless he still got an earful by his missus. Unfortunate chap. In any case, I removed all of the wrong fuel, flushed the engine and filled them up with the right fuel. While watching them drive down the road I mouthed farewell and considered what her indoors would do to me in the event that I made the very same error... I'd personally never live it down!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Horsepools

I'm not overly inclined to doing the job on Sundays, and a while back was no different. I had only just departed the wife and kids after having a tasty lunch prepared by the better half, and I was off to assist a man after he had filled the wrong fuel in his bright red Volkswagen Eos. He was situated in Horsepools thus it wouldn't be a long time before I reached him. Just as I arrived right behind the vehicle and started work he explained to me "Thank the Lord! I incredibly had my attention on stuff and failed to perceive I'd put diesel in my petrol car. Is it likely I brought about any kind of harm as a result of driving it?" I said generally there should not be any problems and also that I'd get the fuel drained right away for him. As expected I got the contaminated fuel drained from the car and put in the appropriate fuel, and yet another delighted motorist could continue on his journey with no difficulty. The guy could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and that is exactly what makes operating on weekends in Gloucestershire that tiny bit less painful to me!

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.
