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


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally a significant issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel can result in idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed effectively, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to solve both circumstances pretty simply.

Be aware that so long as the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will very likely need a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one will probably be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured close to a car or truck parking spot we should be able to gain access to the tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We have performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.

A motorist had broken down on a street, Stainsby just after having put the wrong fuel in her car. She was sobbing and very troubled as she had put £45 of petrol in her diesel car. As she phoned us we tried to cool her as well as we could, telling her that it would be fine. By the time we arrived with her she was not troubled any more and was really intrigued in watching our fuel drainer complete the fuel drain on her rust red Volkswagen Touareg 2. Later on she said: "My car is like my child, I just got it so it honestly worried me that I had put so much wrong fuel in it. I'm glad that it was so easily fixable."

We know what's important to you and for that reason are correctly insured and licenced for this type of business. We have the capacity to attend to virtually all car or truck types irrespective of if they have been started on the wrong fuel or just misfueled.

I had a fantastic day golfing during my off day and was feeling satisfied with myself the next day as I headed out to help a young family vacationing in Stainsby. They'd broken down after adding the wrong fuel in their yellow Audi Q5, and the car was roughly half an hour away. I got there at their position and laughed to myself as I listened to the woman chastising her hubby for turning out to be so stupid. "Just how could you conceivably manage to fill the vehicle up by using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I wanted to tell her that this kind of thing occurs frequently in Lincolnshire and that it's nothing at all to be concerned about, but he yet still got an ear bashing. Unfortunate chap. Anyways, I extracted all the contaminated fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and filled them up with the appropriate fuel. While watching them drive down the road I waved hasta la vista and considered what her indoors would ask me if perhaps I made the very same mistake... I would never live it down!

This really was the night shift. It was roughly dawn and almost noone was about. It had been pretty quiet so far, and Brian and I were relaxing browsing a number of old papers. It was an uncommon quiet time in Lincolnshire. It was in fact so relaxing that the moment my mobile finally rang I leaped! The customer on the phone stated: "I just completed my evening shift and foolishly poured the wrong fuel in my uncle's Volkswagen Tiguan by mistake". I told him to inform us just where the vehicle was situated and we set off, reaching him in Stainsby only 30 minutes later. The fuel was removed from the vehicle. He said thanks for coming so promptly. As we were coming back to the depot we found two ladies on the side of the highway who seemed like they suffered a flat tyre. So we stopped to change it, much 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.
