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


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally a serious matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in fuel can easily lead to idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out correctly, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - primarily because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to handle both cases quite easily.

Bear in mind that as long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be installed because the previous one will probably be completely water-logged and useless.

What a fantastic night's sleep! 7:00 on a gloomy Tuesday and we were on the way to help an older lovely lady after she had put the wrong fuel in her diesel dark green Volkswagen Beetle in Wicken.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Wicken

I am not ever excessively excited about doing work weekends, and a couple weeks ago was the same. I had only just come away from the wife and kids after eating a wonderful roast prepared for us by the missus, and I was on the way to deal with a fellow because he filled the incorrect petrol in his old Cadillac CTS. He was somewhere in Wicken therefore it wouldn't be long before I reached him. Just as I arrived behind the vehicle and got out he explained to me "Praise God! I incredibly had my concentration on something else and did not perceive I'd put diesel in my petrol car. Is it possible I inflicted any harm by simply running it?" I determined that generally there probably should not be any kind of damage and that also I'd personally get the contaminated fuel drained immediately for him. Naturally I removed the contaminated fuel from the car and filled it with the appropriate fuel, and so one more contented client was able to carry on with his journey without any subsequent difficulty. The man could not stop thanking me, and this is exactly what helps make earning a living on weekends in Northamptonshire that little better to me!

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 VAT 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.
