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


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly an important situation to deal with in a car - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the fuel tank is going to bring about idling difficulties, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not addressed effectively, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove when compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both circumstances quite easily.

You should know however that so long as the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will likely be completely water-logged and useless.

Wrong Fuel in Car Lancashire - Petrol in Diesel Car Woodnook

Now I'm not excessively inclined to running Sundays, and last week was no different. I'd only just departed the wife and kids following a fantastic lunch cooked for me by the missus, and I was on the way to deal with a guy who filled the wrong fuel in his stylish BMW X5 M. He was stationed in Woodnook so I was on scene very quickly. As I pulled up at the car and got out he explained to me "Praise the Lord! I stupidly had my thoughts on other considerations and didn't perceive I'd put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Have I caused some problems simply by starting it?" I stated generally there probably should not be any harm and that I'd personally get the contaminated fuel drained as soon as possible for him. It goes without saying that I got the contaminated fuel drained from the vehicle and put in some appropriate fuel, and one more content motorist could continue on their ride without any hassle. The man could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and that is exactly what helps make earning a living on Sundays in Lancashire a little less painful to me!

She soon brightened up and was up and running saying, "I just can't believe my misfortune putting the wrong fuel in my vehicle! Especially with the children in the back."

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.
