The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually an important situation to deal with in an automobile - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol is going to lead to idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of correctly, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can solve both circumstances very quickly.

Keep in mind that as long as the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will probably be totally water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or situated near enough to a car or truck parking bay we can access the fuel storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've carried out quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.

A somewhat concerned motorist called us from the Texaco filling station at Hampshire to inform us that he put unleaded in his diesel light blue Vauxhall Signum; he wasn't totally sure how he'd managed to do it. We told him it was not a hassle and soon had our engineer with him to drain the incorrect fuel from his tank. Having removed the incorrect fuel, he was soon enough back driving. He told us; "I am truly dumbfounded I put the wrong fuel in my car. And the person who appeared to take care of the fuel drain was very very good - he didn't make me look and feel ridiculous."

No one likes grinding to a halt in a car contaminated with the wrong fuel on the road. One of our most recent customers who filled her car with the incorrect fuel (customised Subaru Outback) in Tufton suffered precisely that kind of nightmare: "Your technician moved my car from the live lane. He removed the wrong fuel from it and had it going once more inside of half an hour. Highly recommended."

This really was the night shift. It was around 2 in the morning and hardly anyone was around. It was pretty uneventful thus far, and me and Paul were sitting around looking through a few old newspapers. This was a rare peaceful moment in Hampshire. Actually it was indeed so quiet that when my mobile finally rang it made me start! The person on the opposite end explained: "I just finished my evening shift and stupidly filled petrol in a well worn Mercedes-Benz S-Class by mistake". We told him to tell us where exactly the vehicle was located and we headed out, reaching him in Tufton only an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed from the car and he said many thanks for arriving so rapidly. As we were coming back to base we found two ladies on the edge of the highway who appeared to have a flat tyre. As a result we got out and helped them change it, much to their elation.

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.
