The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Eyton (out of gas - as an American would say)? We operate a complete Herefordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to help to refill your car in cases where you are stuck on a motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our techs can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (acquired at cost) to refill your automobile. They are also able to fix any of the usual troubles that can accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe flat batteries caused by over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a significant condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel is likely to lead to idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, oftentimes ruined injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both circumstances quite simply.

Bear in mind though that any time the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the previous one will probably be thoroughly wet 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.
