The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually a serious situation to take care of in a car - especially in modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel can easily produce idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with properly, possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both situations fairly simply.

You should know though that any time the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be completely wet and unusable.

We can easily get out to re-fill your car in cases where you are stuck on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or even at home.

Wrong Fuel Assist Castlethorpe - Wrong Fuel in Car Castlethorpe

I appreciated a wonderful day cycling on my off day and felt cheerful with myself the following morning as I headed out to assist a young family vacationing in Castlethorpe. They'd stopped after putting petrol in their sunflower yellow VW Eos, and they were around an hour's drive away. I emerged at their car and smiled to myself as I heard to the woman telling her hubby off for being so confused. "Exactly how could you even be able to put the wrong fuel in the vehicle?" she asked him. I tried to clarify that this comes to pass continuously in Lincolnshire and that it's absolutely nothing to fret about, and yet he still had his ear bent by his missus. Unlucky boy. Anyhow, I drained the polluted fuel, gave the engine a flush and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. While watching them drive away I shouted goodbye and wondered what my missus would say to me if ever I did the very same thing... I'd under no circumstances live it down!

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.
