The 3 things you HAVE TO know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually a significant issue to address in an automobile - especially in advanced common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your fuel can potentially produce idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can handle both situations fairly simply.

Keep in mind however that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing that the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car Lancashire - Petrol in Diesel Car Barrow

We performed a wrong fuel retrieval exercise near a beautiful residence in Barrow a few weeks ago. "I had put petrol in my diesel car and was able to nearly get home when my car broke down." Our specialist went out, even though it was pretty late at night, and completed a thorough fuel drain and cleanse on the silver Volvo XC60 .

Wrong Fuel Doctor Barrow - Fuel Rescue Barrow

It truly was the night shift. It was close to sunrise and noone was around. It had been quite quiet thus far, and me and John were sitting around browsing several old newspapers. That was a rare calm hour in Lancashire. Actually it was in fact so relaxing that the instant my mobile ultimately rang it made me jump! The customer told me: "I have completed my night shift and stupidly put petrol in the green Fiat 500 in error". We told him to tell us exactly where he was and we headed out, getting to him in Barrow no more than half an hour later. The contaminated fuel was extracted from the car and he thanked us profusely for getting there so fast. While we were coming back home we saw two young women at the edge of the street who looked like they had a puncture. Obviously we got out and helped them 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 VA 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.
