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 unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a serious matter to handle in a car - especially in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel can certainly lead to idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of than water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both situations quite quickly.

Be aware that whenever the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one will probably be completely water-logged and useless.

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.
