The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or situated close to a vehicle parking bay we should be able to access the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We have completed quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards throughout the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it's petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant issue to take care of in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel tank will likely produce idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if it's not taken care of effectively, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of in comparison with water in diesel - mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can resolve both cases pretty quickly.

Bear in mind that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the previous one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and useless.

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.
