The 3 things you HAVE TO know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant matter to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel is likely to produce idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed fully, oftentimes ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove when compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both cases pretty easily.

Remember though that any time the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will likely be completely water-logged and useless.

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.
