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


Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. So long as the boat is either on land, or parked close to a car parking bay we should be able to access the tanks and remove the fuel. We have carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally a serious matter to handle in a vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in fuel will often produce idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both situations very easily.

Bear in mind that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

The driver of a friend's BMW 6 Series was sorry that he had put petrol in his diesel car when he got as far as the street and it coughed and ground to a halt. "I've gone and put petrol in my diesel car," is what he told us the initial time he phoned. In truth, when he initially telephoned us he said he'd check around, but he phoned us back soon enough because our price and on-scene times were the most appropriate. Not surprisingly, our technician had him doing his deliveries within the period we'd quoted.

A gentleman called us from his residence on a close in Horton. He pronounced, "My vehicle (a white Volvo) is not starting up and is creating dreadful sounds when I flip the key." He confessed that he put unleaded in his diesel car but then thought he would resolve the problem by putting additional Diesel on top. We were on scene quickly, performed the fuel drain and filled him up once again with clean Diesel. He told us after that he'd be sure to educate people not to fill up in addition to the incorrect fuel but to have it drained right away.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Horton

A young adult who had only recently got his licence had misfueled his well worn Audi R8 by putting petrol in his diesel vehicle at the station in Horton. He said, "This is the third occasion I have put fuel in my car from the time when I paid for it and I do not know what to do." He was also anxious since his father had only just paid for the car. He found our company on the net and so called it immediately, afraid about what he needed to do. Our guy on the telephones advised him that we could be on scene inside 45 minutes and to not touch the vehicle while he waited. We performed the fuel drain on his vehicle and he mentioned how amazed he was that it was completed so swiftly and without any complication whatsoever.

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.
