The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally an important condition to handle in a motor vehicle - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the fuel tank can potentially bring about idling difficulties, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not dealt with effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can deal with both cases pretty simply.

Remember that any time the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel Assist Sloley - Wrong Fuel in Car Sloley

I had a great evening golfing during my holiday and was feeling satisfied with myself the next day as I set off to assist a young family who were holidaying in Sloley. They stopped after putting petrol in their winter grey Vauxhall Bedford, and they were approximately an hour's travel away. I showed up at their car and laughed to myself as I listened to the lady telling her man off for turning out to be so stupid. "Just how could you even find a way to fill the car up by using the wrong fuel?" she demanded of him. I wanted to tell her that this goes on quite frequently in Norfolk and that it's nothing to get worried about, even so he in spite of everything had an earful. I felt sorry for the lad. Anyway, I extracted the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave them some proper fuel. While watching them drive down the road I shouted good-bye and thought about what my missus would tell me if ever I did the same thing... I would never hear the end of it!

This was certainly what is called the graveyard shift. It was about 2:30am and nobody was around. It had been fairly dead until now, and me and John were relaxing looking at several old newspapers. This was a rare quiet time in Norfolk. Actually it was that tranquil that when my mobile rang I leaped with surprise! The customer said: "I concluded my evening shift and incredibly put the wrong fuel in a diesel canary yellow Isuzu i-370 in error". I got him to let us know where exactly he was and we set off, reaching him in Sloley no more than an hour or so later. The wrong fuel was taken out from the car and he thanked us profusely for coming out so fast. As we were coming back to the office we noticed two young ladies on the edge of the street who looked like they had a flat tyre.

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.
