The 3 things you NEED to know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is usually an important situation to deal with in a vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol can cause idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out when 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 situations pretty simply.

Take note that any time the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will likely be totally water-logged and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or secured near to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.

What a quality night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 on a bright Sunday and we were on my way to assist an elder lady who had put contaminated fuel in her diesel white BMW 545 in Urra. I'd been told she drove away from the petrol station and stranded on a rural lane en route to see her family. I got her location punched in the TomTom and arrived in less than an hour. I reached the vehicle and extracted the contaminated fuel out of the vehicle. While I was doing the drain she said to me, "Now I'm getting quite forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the car working with diesel since I had just bought it a couple of days back because my other one, which I'd used for more than twenty five years, finally died". I got the drain completed and she offered me a peppermint and thanked me for my hard work. What a precious North Yorkshire woman!

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.
