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


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be an important situation to handle in an automobile - especially in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol can trigger idling issues, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not dealt with properly, possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both situations fairly expediently.

You should know that so long as the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one is going to be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel Assist Ardington - Wrong Fuel in Car Ardington

I had enjoyed a wonderful day cycling during my holiday and felt cheerful the next morning as I set off to assist a new family who were holidaying in Ardington. They conked out after filling diesel in their mustard yellow Porsche Cayenne, and the car was roughly half an hour away. I turned up at their location and smiled while I listened to the woman telling off her husband for being so daft. "Exactly how could you actually be able to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she asked him. I tried to explain that this occurs everyday in Oxfordshire and that it's in reality nothing at all to be concerned about, however he still got his ear bent. I felt sorry for the chap. In any case, I removed the polluted fuel, flushed the fuel system and filled it up with the proper fuel. While they drove down the road I waved good bye and pondered on what her indoors would say to me if I made the same blunder... I would never ever hear the end of it!

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.
