The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is unleaded or diesel, is certainly a significant issue to address in a car - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol is going to cause idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not taken care of fully, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain in comparison with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both cases rather quickly.

Remember however that so long as the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will likely be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Waste Fuel Disposal

We've been called out to numerous privately owned and commercial properties in Hounslow to deal with taking away and disposing of fuel storages.

Wrong Fuel in Car in TW14 Postcode - Feltham Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a good night's sleep! 7:00 am on a sunny Saturday and we were on my way to assist an old lovely lady after she put petrol in her diesel blue Peugeot in Feltham. I had been told she had driven away from the filling station and pulled up in a rural lane on the way to see her family. I popped the location straight into the TomTom and got there in less than 60 minutes. I turned up at the stricken lady and extracted the wrong fuel in the car car. While I was working she said, "I'm becoming rather forgetful in my senior years and didn't remember about the car needing diesel since I had only just bought it a short while ago when my old car, which I had had for more than 30 years, eventually died on me". I got the job completed and she offered me a Murray mint and thanked me for my hard work. Such a delightful Hounslow woman!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Feltham

We a few weeks ago received a phone call about a man who had put the incorrect fuel in his boss' Kia Sephia in Feltham. He had ground to a halt on the road. "After inserting petrol in my diesel car I didn't recognise the predicament up until the time it conked out. You cleared the wrong fuel from my car and got it running once again. I was impressed because of both how fast you were and your price". Obviously we showed up punctually and purged the engine after flushing the petrol from the diesel tank. On arrival our fuel drainer said the customer was fuming, but was grinning his face off afterwards.

A customer from Feltham with a full car of youngsters in her diesel sky blue Peugeot 406 had filled her car with £45 of petrol at the Texaco filling station. She called us weeping and genuinely distraught as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel previously and didn't know what would happen to her vehicle . We assured her that the vehicle would be okay and that she would be ready to go soon. When we arrived on scene she was still distressed but as our engineer began work on the fuel drain she calmed down since she recognised that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't wrecked. She soon enough brightened up and was on her way saying, "I simply can't believe my luck putting petrol in my diesel vehicle! Especially with the little ones 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.
