The 3 things you HAVE TO know about petrol in diesel!


Out of Fuel Services

Run out of fuel in Hucknall (out of gas - as an American would say)? We run a full Nottinghamshire Out of Fuel Service. We are able to get out to fill up your vehicle in cases where you are having difficulty on the motorway, on the side of the road far from a petrol station, or just at your home. Our specialists can come to you with 10-20 litres of fuel (at cost) and refill your automobile. They are also able to handle the usual problems that might go with running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , and even flat batteries as a consequence of over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be an important issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel will likely produce idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed properly, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both circumstances very simply.

You should know that any time the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and unusable.


Wrong Fuel in Car in NG15 Postcode - Hucknall Misfueling

Just had a quality night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 am on a sunny Tuesday and we were en route to assist an older woman after she had put petrol in her diesel boss' Peugeot 309 in Hucknall. I had been advised she drove away from the petrol station and stranded along a rural road on route to pay a visit to her godchildren. I plugged her location in the TomTom and arrived in less than 60 minutes. I got to the car and extracted the contaminated fuel out of the car. As I was doing it she said to me, "I'm getting fairly forgetful in my old age and didn't remember about the car needing diesel as I'd only just acquired it a few days ago when my old one, which I'd had for about 30 years, finally died". I completed the drain and she offered me a toffee and thanked me for my efforts. Such a precious Nottinghamshire woman!

A gentleman contacted us from his house on a close in Hucknall. He said, "My vehicle (a new-shape BMW 325) is not starting and is making terrible sounds when I flip the ignition." He admitted that he put unleaded in his diesel car but then believed he would resolve the issue by putting further Diesel on top. We showed up quickly, did the fuel drain and filled it up once more with untainted Diesel. He told us after that he'd be sure to educate people not to fill up in addition to the wrong fuel but to have it drained promptly.

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.
