The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, tends to be an important matter to take care of in a vehicle - particularly in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel will likely bring about idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not sorted out effectively, quite possibly damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of when compared with water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to deal with both situations quite quickly.

Remember though that any time the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will be totally wet and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel in Car Somerset - Petrol in Diesel Car Holman Clavel

I am not actually that hot for working Sundays, and a week ago was the same. I'd just departed home filled with a tasty dinner made for us by the better half, and I was on the way to assist a man who had filled the incorrect petrol in his deep grey Vauxhall Meriva. He was stationed in Holman Clavel and so I was there before long. Just as I drove up at the vehicle and stepped out he said to me "Thank the Lord! I foolishly had my thoughts on other considerations and did not ascertain I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. Is it likely I brought on any kind of harm by driving it?" I determined that there shouldn't be problems and also that I'd personally drain the fuel immediately for him. It goes without saying that I drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle and put in some suitable fuel, and thus another satisfied motorist was able to carry on with his journey without any fuss. The guy couldn't stop thanking me, and this is actually what tends to make earning a living on weekends in Somerset just a little bit better for me personally!

It truly was an unsociable time to be up. It was around 3:30am and nobody was stirring. It was rather dead thus far, and me and Brian were loafing reading a couple of old magazines. This was a rare quiet moment in Somerset. Actually it was indeed that tranquil that when my mobile ultimately rang it made me jump! The customer explained: "I have only just completed my evening shift and stupidly filled the wrong fuel in the metallic red Nissan 350Z Roadster". I told him to let us know where exactly the car was located and we set off, getting to him in Holman Clavel under 30 minutes later. The wrong fuel was cleared from the car and he said thank you for coming out so rapidly. As we were returning to the office we noticed two young women on the edge of the street who seemed like they had a flat tyre. Accordingly we pulled over to change it, much to their delight.

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 VA 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.
