The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Waste Fuel Removal

Got a fuel tank laying at the back of the garden full of unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We've been called out to numerous privately owned and business properties in Shropshire to take care of removing and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to extract and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

Whether the fuel storage is a subterranean reservoir, a portable bowser, or perhaps a few containers in a garage, provided that we are able to get to it, we can certainly empty it for you.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a significant matter to handle in a vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank can certainly produce idling issues, lumpy running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out fully, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can deal with both circumstances very swiftly.

Remember though that as long as the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely need a new fuel filter fitted because the old one is going to be completely water-logged and useless.


Wrong Fuel in Car in WV16 Postcode - Billingsley Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a great night of uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a warm Sunday and I was on my way to assist an older lady who put petrol in her diesel gorgeous Volvo S80 in Billingsley. She told us that she had left the petrol station forecourt and was broken down in a country road on the way to visit her family. I got the location plugged in the Satnav and arrived inside 60 minutes. I turned up at the location and extracted the wrong fuel from the car. Whilst I was doing the drain she told me, "Now I'm getting rather absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the vehicle using diesel as I had only just got it several days back when my old one, which I had owned for over 30 years, inevitably gave up the ghost". I got the job completed and she gifted me a toffee and thanked me for my efforts. Such a delightful Shropshire lady!

This really was what we call an unsociable hour to be on the road. It was close to dawn and almost noone was around. It had been rather dead so far, and me and Ray were sitting reading a couple of old magazines. It was a rare restful moment in Shropshire. It was indeed so quiet that when my mobile finally rang I leaped with surprise! The motorist explained: "I've completed my overnight shift and foolishly poured petrol in the diesel beautiful Mercedes-Benz SL-Class". We asked him to let us know where exactly the car was situated and we headed out, arriving in Billingsley only 30 minutes later. The fuel was removed from the engine. He thanked us for showing up so rapidly. As we were heading back home we noticed two ladies at the side of the highway who looked like they suffered a flat. Accordingly we got out to change it, much to their elation.

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.
