The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is usually a serious situation to address in a car - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel will often cause idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not remedied fully, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out than water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both cases very quickly.

Be aware however that in the event that the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted simply because the old one is going to be thoroughly water-logged and unusable.

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:

    • 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.
