The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a serious matter to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol can easily lead to idling issues, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of effectively, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to drain than water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both cases rather easily.

Be aware that if ever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the previous one will be completely wet and ineffective.

I'd had a wonderful day golfing during the weekend and was feeling contented with myself the following working day as I headed out to aid a new couple vacationing in Shadsworth. They conked out after adding diesel in their mum's Mercedes S-Class, and were approximately an hour away. I turned up at their position and smiled as I heard to the wife telling off her hubby for actually being so silly. "Just how could you even be able to fill the vehicle up using the wrong fuel?" she told him. I attempted to clarify that this problem takes place quite frequently in Lancashire and that it's truly nothing to be concerned about, but he in spite of everything got an ear bashing. Poor chap. At any rate, I cleaned up and removed the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the proper fuel. Watching while they drove away I mouthed bon voyage and wondered what my wife would ask me in the event that I made the exact same error... I would under no circumstances live it down!

Wrong Fuel Doctor Shadsworth - Fuel Rescue Shadsworth

This was exactly what is called an unsociable time to be awake. It was around 3:30am and hardly anyone was stirring. It had been quite dead up to now, and me and John were relaxing looking through a couple of old newspapers. This was an unusual restful moment in Lancashire. Actually it was in fact that tranquil that the instant the phone rang I jumped with surprise! The customer on the phone stated: "I have just ended my overnight shift and stupidly poured petrol in the diesel navy blue BMW X3 by mistake". I got him to tell us just where the car was located and we left, reaching him in Shadsworth only half an hour later. The fuel was cleaned from the vehicle and he said thanks a lot for arriving so rapidly. While we were coming back to base we saw two young women on the side of the road who seemed like they suffered a flat tyre. Obviously we pulled up to help them change it, to their elation.

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.
