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


Run Out of Fuel Service

Out of fuel in Laneham (out of gas - as our American cousins would say)? We perform a comprehensive Nottinghamshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We are able to come to fill up the car in the event that you are stranded on a motorway, roadside far from a petrol station, or even at home. Our techs can come out to you with 10-20 litres of the right fuel (at pump price) and refill the car. They will handle the normal issues that can come with running out of fuel - such as airlocks, vehicle unable to start, or even flat batteries resulting from over-cranking.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, can be a serious condition to take care of in a car - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel may produce idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it is not taken care of properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of than water in diesel - this is mainly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both situations fairly simply.

Remember however that as long as the vehicle has been started with the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

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.
