The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is actually a significant issue to address in a car - particularly in current day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in diesel or petrol can produce idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out correctly, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can solve both situations quite expediently.

Keep in mind though that any time the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Just had a fantastic night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 in the morning on a gloomy Tuesday and we were en route to assist an elder woman who had put petrol in her diesel luxury Bentley Continental in Cumberlow Green. I'd been informed she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and stranded in a rural road on route to pay a visit to her godchildren. I got the location plugged in the Satnav and was on-scene inside an hour. I turned up at the destination and drained the wrong fuel in the car car. While I was doing the drain she told me, "Now I'm getting quite absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle taking diesel since I'd only just purchased it a couple of days back because my old one, which I'd owned for about twenty five years, finally gave up the ghost". I finished the drain and she presented me a Murray mint and said thanks. Such a precious Hertfordshire lady!

This was what we call the graveyard shift. It was around sunrise and nobody was about. It had been rather quiet up to now, and Ray and I were loafing looking through a few old magazines. This was an uncommon restful hour in Hertfordshire. It was in fact so quiet that when the telephone eventually rang I jumped with surprise! The person said: "I only just finished my night shift and stupidly poured the wrong fuel in a diesel super Cadillac Sixty Special in error". I got him to let us know where exactly the car was and we hit the road, arriving in Cumberlow Green under an hour later. The contaminated fuel was taken out from the engine. He said thanks a lot for coming so promptly. As we were heading back home we found two women at the edge of the road who seemed to have a puncture. As a result we got out to change it, to their delight.

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.
