It was close to 8 pm on a Thursday and though we were promised a dry and fresh night, it hadn't given up on raining! Mark and I were resting talking about the sports results, waiting around for the next fuel drain of the day to arrive. Inevitably we got the call from a woman on a company expedition who had gone to the BP petrol station in Birchend and put the wrong fuel in her diesel mint green Jeep Commander hire car by mistake. She was fairly troubled by the sounds of it, saying "I can't believe I've ruined the car! I am just so accustomed to filling my petrol vehicle I had forgot I was operating a diesel!" I told her to take it easy and not to fret, plus that things like this regrettably often happen.

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


Out of Fuel Support

Out of fuel in Birchend (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a comprehensive Herefordshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to fill up your automobile in the event that you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or even at your home. Our techs can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (bought at pump prices) and fill up your vehicle. They are also able to take care of the normal troubles that could go with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle failing to restart, or maybe flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant situation to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in fuel is likely to contribute to idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both situations pretty expediently.

Remember however that so long as the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and unusable.

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.
