The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Motorboat Fuel Drains

If perhaps there is the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most typically water contaminated or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help drain it. As long as the boat is either on land, or parked near to a car parking spot we will be able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We have successfully done quite a few fuel drains at marinas and boatyards in the uk.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is petrol or diesel, is in many cases a significant issue to address in a car - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol will often bring about idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with correctly, possibly ruined injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out than water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. However we are able to resolve both cases very simply.

You should know though that if the vehicle was started with the fuel contaminated with water it will most likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the old one will likely be totally wet and useless.

What a good night of sleep! It was 7:30 in the morning on a warm Bank Holiday Monday and I was en route to help an elder lady who had put contaminated fuel in her diesel mint green Hyundai Genesis Coupe in Hoar Cross. I'd been advised she had left the petrol station forecourt and broken down on a backwater road on route to see her godchildren. I popped her location straight into the TomTom and arrived within an hour or so. I reached the location and extracted the contaminated fuel in the car vehicle. As I was doing it she said to me, "Now I'm becoming relatively forgetful in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle taking diesel as I'd only just got it a few days back because my previous one, which I had had for more than thirty years, finally broke down". I finished the job and she presented me a Murray mint and thanked me for my work. Such a precious Staffordshire woman!

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Hoar Cross

Now I'm not necessarily that enthusiastic about carrying out work on Sundays, and last week was the same. I had just come away from the family after a fantastic lunch cooked by the better half, and I was off to sort out a gentleman who put the wrong petrol in his burgundy red Cadillac CTS. He was stationed in Hoar Cross thus it wasn't a long time before I reached him. Just as I drove up at the rear of the car and got busy draining he explained to me "Thank the Lord! I stupidly had my thoughts on stuff and didn't realise I'd put diesel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I created damage as a result of starting it?" I revealed truth be told there should not be any kind of damage and also that I would get the contaminated fuel drained as soon as possible. Naturally I drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle and filled up with the suitable fuel, and then yet another happy motorist could continue on his journey without any subsequent hassle. He could not stop thanking me, and that is what can make carrying out work on Sundays in Staffordshire a little bit 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.
