The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious situation to handle in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel tank can produce idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, quite possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to handle both cases very swiftly.

Take note however that whenever the vehicle was started on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. So long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near enough to a car or truck parking spot we are able to reach the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have carried out numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.

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.
