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


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is in many cases a significant situation to address in a vehicle - especially in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel may contribute to idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, quite possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to deal with both situations rather quickly.

Take note however that in the event that the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will be thoroughly wet and useless.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we will help get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored near enough to an automobile parking spot we can access the tanks and drain out the fuel. We have done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards nationwide.

I appreciated a wonderful evening golfing on my day off and felt pleased with myself the next working day as I set out to help a young family vacationing in Scrainwood. They'd conked out after putting petrol in their faithful Audi Q5, and were close to an hour's travel away. I showed up at their position and smirked to myself while I listened to the gal chastising her husband for being so silly. "How could you even find a way to fill up using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I tried to clarify that this occurs frequently in Northumberland and that it's absolutely nothing to fret about, however he in spite of everything got his ear bent. Unlucky guy. At any rate, I drained out all the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave them some proper fuel. Watching them drive away I shouted goodbye and considered what my missus would say to me if ever I made the exact same error... I'd never hear the end of it!

No matter which misfuel problem you require support with you know you can depend on us. We are looking ahead to your phone call to give advice and our expert expertise to get your vehicle back on the road once more. Demand a wrong fuel drain or help straight away:

A driver from Scrainwood with her youngsters in her diesel classic Vauxhall Astra had put £42 of petrol at the Sainsburys filling station. She contacted us crying and extremely worried as she had never put petrol in a diesel car and didn't know what would happen to her vehicle in doing so. We told her that all should be okay and that she would be ready to go very quickly. When we got there she was still distressed but while our fuel drainer began work on the fuel drain she simmered down since she discovered that help was at hand and her car wasn't unfixable.

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.
