It was after 5 pm on a Tuesday and while we were assured a rainless afternoon, it hadn't stopped raining! Ray and me were resting going over the recent sports results, ready for the seventh telephone call that day to arrive. Before long we had a phone call from a lovely women on a company excursion who had arrived at the BP petrol station in Hockering and filled petrol in her diesel dirty red Hyundai Equus rental car by mistake. She was rather troubled it seemed, stating "I simply cannot believe I've wrecked the vehicle! I'm so familiar with putting petrol in my petrol car that I had didn't remember I was running a diesel!" I just told her to relax and not to be concerned, and that things like this regrettably can happen.

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


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, tends to be a serious matter to deal with in a vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol will likely lead to idling issues, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with properly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to remove as compared to water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both cases rather quickly.

Bear in mind that any time the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one is going to be totally wet and unusable.

We have been called out to a number of private and business properties in Norfolk to take care of taking away and disposing of fuel storages.

Wrong Fuel in Car Norfolk - Petrol in Diesel Car Hockering

Now I'm not necessarily excessively enthusiastic about running weekends, and 2 weeks ago was no different. I had only just departed the wife and kids filled with a fantastic lunch cooked for us by the wife, and I was en route to assist a fellow after he filled the incorrect fuel in his cobalt blue Chevrolet Malibu. He was located in Hockering so it wasn't a long time before I got to him. As I pulled up right behind the vehicle and got busy draining he said to me "Praise God! I stupidly had my thoughts on stuff and didn't grasp that I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol car. Is it likely I inflicted some harm by starting it?" I said there should not be harm and also I would personally drain the fuel immediately for him. It goes without saying that I got the wrong fuel drained from the vehicle and put in the suitable fuel, and so yet another delighted client had the ability to continue his journey with no hassle. The man couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and this helps make working on weekends in Norfolk that little easier to me!

The engine was spluttering and then it died when she got to the entrance of her office. We quickly started on the fuel drain after she called and had it resolved within 60 minutes whilst she was in the office. She came out when we finished and thanked us saying, "I'm very pleased you sorted my vehicle."

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.
