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


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally a serious condition to take care of in a motor vehicle - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the fuel tank will likely trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not sorted out properly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to deal with both situations very simply.

You should know though that in the event that the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the old one will likely be totally wet and unusable.

As long as the boat is either on land, or moored close to a car or truck parking bay we should be able to reach the tanks and remove the fuel.

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.
