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


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly an important condition to handle in a vehicle - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel may produce idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it's not remedied effectively, quite possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of compared to water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both cases rather swiftly.

You should know however that if the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will probably be totally wet and useless.

Wrong Fuel in Car in GL51 Postcode - Warden Hill Misfueling

A customer had conked out on a road, Warden Hill having just misfueled. She was crying and fairly distressed as she had put £42 petrol in her diesel car. As she phoned us we tried to relax her as well as we could, reassuring her that all would be fine. When we arrived with her she was no longer distressed and was very intrigued in watching our fuel drainer complete the fuel drain on her buff Isuzu i-350. Later she said: "My car is like my baby, I recently got it and so it especially concerned me that I had put a lot of wrong fuel in it. I'm terribly gratified that it was so easily fixable."

I enjoyed a wonderful evening cycling on my holiday and felt pleased the following working day as I headed out to aid a new couple who were on holiday in Warden Hill. They had broken down after filling diesel into their precious Kia Spectra5, and were about half an hour away. I emerged at their location and laughed as I listened to the lady telling her man off for being so foolish. "How could you conceivably be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she demanded of him. I tried to tell her that this situation goes on everyday in Gloucestershire and that it is absolutely nothing to be concerned about, even so he all the same had an earful. I felt sorry for the boy. In any case, I removed all the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. Watching them drive off I waved hasta la vista and considered what her indoors would ask me in the event that I made the very same error... I would personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!

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.
