The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, is actually a serious matter to handle in a vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol will likely bring about idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not sorted out properly, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is easier to clean out as compared to water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to take care of both cases quite simply.

Remember that if the vehicle has been run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will probably be completely wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most usually water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help remove it. So long as the boat is either on land, or situated close enough to a car parking spot we are able to access the storage and remove the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Bogend

Now I am not actually overly enthusiastic about doing work on weekends, and last week was no different. I'd only just departed home filled with a magnificent Sunday roast cooked for me by the wife, and I was on my way to sort out a guy after he put the wrong petrol in his dirty red Chrysler PT Cruiser. He was only in Bogend hence I was there quickly. As I pulled up at the car and got out he explained to me "Thank God! I incredibly had my thoughts on other things and did not perceive I'd put diesel in my petrol car. Have I created problems simply by starting it?" I determined that truth be told there probably should not be damage and also that I'd personally drain the contaminated fuel as quickly as possible for him. It goes without saying that I removed the fuel from the vehicle and filled it with the suitable fuel, and thus another satisfied client had the ability to continue their journey without any subsequent hassle. He couldn't stop saying thanks to me, and that is what makes carrying out work on weekends in Nottinghamshire that little better to me!

Wrong Fuel Doctor Bogend - Fuel Rescue Bogend

A driver from Bogend with her children in her diesel khaki green Daewoo Lanos had filled her vehicle with £45 of petrol at the Sainsburys filling station. She phoned us sobbing and extremely upset as she had never filled up with the wrong fuel before and did not know what might happen to her car because of it. We told her that the car should be ok and that she would be on the road very quickly. When we arrived she was still upset but as our engineer got to work on the fuel drain she calmed down as she saw that help was at hand and her vehicle wasn't unfixable. She quickly brightened up and was on the road again saying, "I really can't believe my misfortune putting the wrong fuel in my car! Especially with the youngsters 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 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.
