The 3 things you NEED to know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely an important issue to deal with in an automobile - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel may bring about idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed fully, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both circumstances very easily.

Keep in mind however that whenever the vehicle was started on the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Wrong Fuel Assist Buslingthorpe - Wrong Fuel in Car Buslingthorpe

I had a fantastic day fishing on my holiday and felt delighted the next morning as I headed out to assist a new couple who were on holiday in Buslingthorpe. They'd stopped after adding diesel into their customised VW Touareg 2, and were roughly an hour away. I arrived at their position and laughed to myself as I heard to the girl telling her husband off for actually being so silly. "How could you conceivably manage to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I tried to explain that this situation goes on all the time in Lincolnshire and that it's actually nothing at all to be concerned about, and yet he all the same got an earful by his missus. Unlucky chap. Anyway, I removed all the contaminated fuel, flushed the motor and filled it up with the right fuel.

    • Engine coughing or starting to splutter
