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


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally a serious situation to address in a car - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in fuel tank can potentially cause idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to get rid of than water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both circumstances rather easily.

Be aware however that any time the vehicle has been run with the fuel contaminated with water it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will likely be totally water-logged and ineffective.

Run out of fuel in Bushey Ground (out of gas - as our American cousins might say)? We run a complete Oxfordshire Run Out of Fuel Service. We can easily help to fill up your car in cases where you are stranded on the motorway, on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere, or perhaps even at your home. Our specialists can attend with 10-20 litres of fuel (purchased at pump price) to fill your car. They will be able to take care of any of the most common issues that could accompany running out of fuel - for example airlocks, vehicle not restarting, , as well as flat batteries because of over-cranking.


Wrong Fuel in Car in OX29 Postcode - Bushey Ground Misfueling

A young lady had come to a halt on a street, Bushey Ground having just misfueled. She was sobbing and really troubled as she had put £40 of petrol in her diesel car. As she called us we attempted to relax her as well as we could, assuring her that everything would be ok. By the time we got to her she was not annoyed any more and was rather curious in watching our fuel drainer do the fuel drain on her sky blue Audi Coupe GT. Afterwards she said: "My vehicle is like my baby, I recently got it so it genuinely horrified me that I had put such a large amount of wrong fuel in it. I'm happy that it was very easily fixable."

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.
