It was after 9 pm on a Saturday and despite the fact that we were guaranteed a dry and fresh day, it had not ceased pouring down rain! Dan and I were resting going over the weekend's footy, waiting around for the 6th fuel drain to come in. Before long we had a call from a lady on a business excursion who had pulled into the Tesco filling garage in Horrocksford and filled petrol in a diesel beautiful Mitsubishi Expo rental car. The poor lady was rather irritated by the sounds of it, telling me "I still can't believe I've ruined the vehicle! I'm just so used to filling up my petrol car that I completely did not remember I was using a diesel!" We asked her to settle back and not to worry, and also that these things sadly can happen. She had managed to relocate the car to a protected area and, seeing that it was only a short distance from where we were, we could arrive at the customer quickly. The contaminated fuel was cleaned up and removed so she was able to go home to the motel she was lodging at. Despite the fact that we got thoroughly soaked, it was all worth the effort seeing her drive away relaxed and not so concerned. Yet another job in Lancashire well done in my opinion!

The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, can be an important matter to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel will likely contribute to idling difficulties, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to solve both cases quite quickly.

Be aware however that in the event that the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one will probably be totally 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 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.
