The 3 things you HAVE TO know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your fuel tank will often trigger idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if not taken care of properly, oftentimes broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - mainly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can solve both cases quite quickly.

Remember though that if ever the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will likely be completely water-logged and unusable.

We a few weeks ago got a phone call about a young man who had put the wrong fuel in his green Daihatsu Charade in Woolston. He had broken down on the road.

This was what we call an unsociable time to be on the road. It was roughly dawn and hardly anyone was around. It had been pretty uneventful until now, and me and Ray were sitting about perusing some old newspapers. That was a rare peaceful time in Somerset. Actually it was indeed that quiet that the moment the telephone ultimately rang it made me start! The customer stated: "I've completed my overnight shift and stupidly put the wrong fuel in the diesel mate's Mitsubishi Precis". We told him to let us know where the vehicle was situated and we set off, ending up in Woolston under an hour or so later. The fuel was cleared from the engine and he said thanks a lot for coming out so fast. While we were heading back to the office we saw two women at the side of the highway who looked like they suffered a flat tyre. As a result we got out to help them 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 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.
