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


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is without question a significant issue to deal with in an automobile - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol is going to result in idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain compared to water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both circumstances very expediently.

You should know though that as long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel in Car Lincolnshire - Petrol in Diesel Car Dragonby

We not too long ago received a phone call from a young man who had put the incorrect fuel in his precious Hyundai Scoupe in Dragonby. He had conked out on the road. "It was incredible how quick you people were in getting someone out to assist me after I foolishly petrol in my diesel. Thank you so much". As you can imagine we arrived punctually and purged the engine after draining the unleaded from the diesel tank. The driver was over the moon by the time we were done and he drove off completely happy.

This was certainly what is called an unsociable time to be awake. It was about dawn and nobody was about. It had been pretty uneventful up to now, and me and Brian were loafing about looking through several old newspapers. It was an uncommon peaceful moment in Lincolnshire. Actually it was that tranquil that the moment the phone ultimately rang it made me start! The person told me: "I have ended my overnight shift and foolishly filled petrol in my shiny VW Tiguan by mistake". I got him to tell us just where the vehicle was and we hit the road, reaching him in Dragonby less than 30 minutes later. The incorrect fuel was cleaned up and removed from the engine. He said thank you for getting there so quickly. As we were coming back to the depot we found two ladies on the side of the street who seemed to have a flat tyre. So we pulled up to change it, much to their delight.

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.
