The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we will help drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've successfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious condition to deal with in a car - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol can potentially lead to idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both cases rather swiftly.

Remember however that so long as the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the previous one is going to be totally water-logged and unusable.

Just had a fantastic night of sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a gloomy Tuesday and we were en route to assist an old lady who had put petrol in her diesel son's Audi A4 in Dormington. I had been told she drove away from the filling station and stranded on a backwater lane on the way to see her grandchildren. I punched the location in the Satnav and arrived in less than 60 minutes. I arrived at the location and drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. Whilst I was working she told me, "I'm becoming relatively forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the car needing diesel seeing that I'd only just purchased it several days back because my previous one, which I'd used for more than twenty years, inevitably stopped working". I got the drain done and she gave me a toffee and said thank you. Such a pleasant Herefordshire woman!

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.
