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


Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you have the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. So long as the boat is either on land, or secured near to a car or truck parking bay we will be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly an important condition to address in an automobile - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in fuel will produce idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is less difficult to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can handle both cases quite expediently.

Remember though that as long as the vehicle has been started on the water contaminated fuel it will probably need a new fuel filter fitted since the old one is going to be thoroughly wet and useless.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Curborough

I'm not actually excessively enthusiastic about doing the job on Sundays, and the other day was the same. I'd just departed home after a fantastic roast made for us by the wife, and I was off to assist a fellow after he had put the wrong fuel in his daughter's Range Rover Sport. He was stationed in Curborough thus it wasn't long before I got to him. Just as I drove up behind the car and got busy draining he said to me "Praise God! I incredibly had my attention on other things and did not ascertain I had put diesel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I created any kind of harm because of running it?" I revealed there probably should not be problems and also I would get the contaminated fuel drained as quickly as possible for him. Needless to say I removed the contaminated fuel from the car and put in the correct fuel, and then one more delighted motorist was able to carry on with their trip without the fuss. He could not stop saying thanks to me, and that is actually what makes earning a living on weekends in Staffordshire that little better to me!

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.
