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


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is usually a significant matter to address in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel will often cause idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed effectively, possibly broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both cases quite expediently.

Keep in mind however that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will likely be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a vehicle parking spot we will be able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.


Wrong Fuel in Car in SO32 Postcode - Durley Misfueling

What a good night of sleep! It was 7:00 on a warm Monday and I was en route to help an elder lady who put petrol in her diesel customised Fiat Multipla in Durley. I had been told she drove away from the filling station and broken down along a backwater lane on route to pay a visit to her godchildren. I popped the location in the Satnav and got there in less than an hour or so. I arrived at the destination and removed the contaminated fuel from the car. As I was doing it she said to me, "Now I'm getting rather absent-minded in my senior years and forgot about the vehicle working with diesel seeing that I had just acquired it a week ago because my previous one, which I used for over twenty years, eventually died". I got the drain done and she gifted me a peppermint and said thanks. Such a lovely Hampshire lady!

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.
