The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally a significant situation to handle in a car - particularly in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol is likely to trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out effectively, potentially ruined injectors. Water in petrol is easier to get rid of as compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we can deal with both circumstances very quickly.

Take note though that as long as the vehicle was run on the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted as the old one will probably be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If you find there is the incorrect fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a car parking spot we should be able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.

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.
