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


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant condition to handle in an automobile - specifically in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank can certainly result in idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, possibly blown injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to clean out than water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to solve both situations fairly simply.

Take note though that whenever the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted since the old one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and unusable.

We will get out to refill the car any time you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or just at home.

Wrong Fuel in Car in NE19 Postcode - Kirkharle Misfueling

What a great night's sleep! It was 7:30 on a gloomy Sunday and we were off to assist an elder lovely lady after she put petrol in her diesel black Citron DS3 in Kirkharle. She informed us that she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and was stranded in a backwater lane on the way to visit her grandchildren. I got the location punched straight into the TomTom and got there within an hour or so. I reached the destination and removed the wrong fuel from the vehicle. Whilst I was doing the work she said, "Now I'm getting rather absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the vehicle using diesel as I'd only just acquired it a short while back when my old car, which I used for more than thirty years, inevitably died on me". I completed the drain and she presented me a peppermint and said thanks. Such a delightful Northumberland woman!

Wrong Fuel in Car Northumberland - Petrol in Diesel Car Kirkharle

I am not so inclined to doing work on Sundays, and a while back was the same. I'd just left home filled with a magnificent lunch cooked for us by the wife, and I was on my way to deal with a gentleman after he had put the incorrect fuel in his work's Mercedes CLS-Class. He was somewhere in Kirkharle and so I arrived with him very quickly. As I drove up at the rear of the vehicle and got out he told me "Thank God! I stupidly had my concentration on other stuff and failed to ascertain I'd put diesel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I brought on any kind of problems as a result of running it?" I explained that there shouldn't be damage and also that I'd drain the wrong fuel right away. Obviously I got the wrong fuel drained from the car and put in the suitable fuel, and thus another pleased customer was able to continue on their traveling without the fuss. He couldn't stop thanking me, and that is actually what makes carrying out work on Sundays in Northumberland just a tiny bit easier for me!

Wrong Fuel Doctor Kirkharle - Fuel Rescue Kirkharle

A lady from Kirkharle with her little ones in her diesel classic VW GLI had put £30 of petrol at the Shell service station. She phoned us sobbing and really distraught as she had never put petrol in a diesel car previously and didn't know what could happen to her car because of it. We reassured her that the car should be fine and that she would be up and running quickly. When we arrived on scene she was visible distressed but while our fuel drainer began work on the fuel drain she calmed down as she recognised that help was at hand and her car wasn't ruined. She quickly brightened up and was on her way saying, "I can't believe my bad luck putting the wrong fuel in my car! Particularly with the children in the back."

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.
