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


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, can be a significant condition to deal with in a motor vehicle - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel can certainly trigger idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to get rid of than water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to deal with both situations rather simply.

Be aware that if ever the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will undoubtedly be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you've got the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. As long as the boat is either dry-docked, or moored close enough to a vehicle parking bay we will be able to gain access to the fuel tanks and drain out the fuel. We have carried out many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.


Wrong Fuel in Car in TA20 Postcode - Pudleigh Misfueling

What a good night's uninterrupted sleep! It was 7:00 am on a bright Tuesday and we were en route to assist an elder lovely lady who put petrol in her diesel customised Volkswagen Jetta III in Pudleigh. I'd been informed she drove away from the petrol station forecourt and pulled up in a rural road en route to pay a visit to her godchildren. I got her location punched into the Satnav and got there in less than 60 minutes. I turned up at the car and drained the wrong fuel from the car. As I was working she told me, "Now I'm becoming somewhat absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the car working with diesel because I had only bought it a couple of days back because my former one, which I owned for over twenty years, finally died on me". I got the drain done and she gave me a toffee and said thanks a lot. Such a precious Somerset lady!

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.
