The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is undoubtedly a significant issue to take care of in a car - especially in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel is likely to cause idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of correctly, in some cases ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to remove compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can deal with both situations rather quickly.

Be aware though that any time the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will likely be completely wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. Providing the boat is either dry-docked, or parked near enough to a car parking spot we are able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the fuel. We've successfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.


Wrong Fuel in Car in TA2 Postcode - Staplegrove Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a quality night's sleep! 7:00 on a rainy Saturday and I was off to help an older lovely lady after she put contaminated fuel in her diesel canary yellow Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG in Staplegrove. I had been advised she had left the filling station forecourt and pulled up on a rural lane en route to pay a visit to her godchildren. I got her location plugged in the TomTom and got there inside an hour. I got to the destination and drained the wrong fuel out of the vehicle. While I was working she said to me, "Now I'm becoming relatively absent-minded in my old age and forgot about the car needing diesel seeing that I'd only just purchased it a couple of days back when my previous car, which I'd had for over twenty five years, inevitably died on me". I got the job completed and she offered me a peppermint and said thanks. What 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.
