The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Ruxton (out of gas - as the Americans would say)? We operate a full Herefordshire Out of Fuel Service. We can help to refill the car in the event that you are having difficulty on the motorway, roadside in the middle of nowhere, or just at home. Our engineers can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (bought at pump prices) and refill your automobile. They will be able to handle any of the normal troubles that can accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or maybe flat batteries due to over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant situation to take care of in an automobile - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel may well bring about idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not remedied properly, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both circumstances pretty simply.

Be aware that any time the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed as the old one will be totally water-logged and unusable.

A customer from Ruxton with her kids in her diesel blue Subaru Impreza had put £45 of petrol at the Sainsburys station. She contacted us weeping and very worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel car previously and did not know what could happen to her vehicle because of it. We told her that all would be ok and that she would be back on the road quickly.

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.
