The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is usually a significant condition to address in a car - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the fuel tank may well lead to idling issues, uneven running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed effectively, in some cases blown injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of than water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can handle both cases pretty quickly.

You should know however that so long as the vehicle has been run on the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed because the old one will likely be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Heathcote

I'm not necessarily excessively interested in working on weekends, and last week was no different. I had only just left home after having a tasty roast prepared by the better half, and I was off to help a man because he put the incorrect petrol in his red Land Rover Range Rover Sport. He was situated in Heathcote so it wouldn't be a long time before I got to him. As I drove up at the car and got out he explained to me "Praise God! I had my concentration on other considerations and failed to realise I've put diesel in my petrol car. Is it likely I brought on any damage by simply starting it?" I revealed generally there should not be any kind of damage and also I'd get the fuel drained right away. It goes without saying that I got the wrong fuel drained from the car and put in the correct fuel, and so yet another pleased motorist could continue on their journey without the fuss. He could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and that is exactly what tends to make working on Sundays in Shropshire just that tiny bit easier to me!

This was what we call the night shift. It was about 3 in the morning and noone was stirring. It had been pretty uneventful up to now, and Ryan and I were sitting around looking at a few old articles. That was a rare tranquil moment in Shropshire. It was indeed so calm that when the telephone finally rang I jumped! The voice explained: "I finished my evening shift and stupidly filled petrol in a diesel metallic silver Renault Alliance in error". I asked him to inform us just where the vehicle was and we hit the road, reaching him in Heathcote an hour or so later. The wrong fuel was cleared from the motor. He said thanks for showing up so rapidly. As we were coming back to the office we saw two girls on the edge of the road who seemed like they had a puncture. Accordingly we stopped to change it, 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.
