The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally a serious situation to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the fuel tank can cause idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both situations fairly expediently.

Take note however that any time the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can help you clean it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored near to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to reach the fuel storage tanks and remove the fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards throughout the country.

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.
