It was after 5 pm on a Saturday and although we were assured a dry afternoon, it had not stopped pouring down rain! Mark and I were seated talking over the golf, ready for the 8th telephone call for the day to come in. Before long we received the call from a girl on a business expedition who had gone to the Sainsburys filling station in Base Green and put petrol in her diesel raspberry red Dodge Colt lease car. The poor lady was somewhat irritated by the sounds of it, stating "I cannot believe that I have wrecked the vehicle! I'm so familiar with filling up my petrol car I completely didn't remember that I was operating a diesel!" I just instructed her to calm down and not to fret, and also that these things unfortunately often happen. She had managed to maneuver the vehicle to a secure position and, as it was just a few minutes from our van, we could find her rather quickly. The bad fuel was drained so she could once again go back to the Premier Inn she was staying in. Although we got really wet, it was all worth the time to watch her drive away satisfied and less concerned. Yet another misfuel correction in Suffolk well done in my books!

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


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is generally an important condition to handle in a car - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your diesel or petrol can potentially contribute to idling problems, lumpy running, increased smoke and, if not taken care of properly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less difficult to drain when compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to take care of both situations quite simply.

Remember that if ever the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed seeing as the previous one will be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Waste Fuel Disposal

Have an old fuel reservoir lying at the rear of the garden with unwanted and old, unusable or degraded fuel? We could assist you to dispose of it. We've been called out to numerous privately owned and business properties in Suffolk for the purpose of taking away and recycling fuel storages. We are licenced by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel safely and legally.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is an underground container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps even some containers in a shed, provided that we can get to it, we could certainly drain it.

Wrong Fuel in Car Suffolk - Petrol in Diesel Car Base Green

We recently got a phone call about a guy who had put the incorrect fuel in his metallic blue Mazda RX-7 in Base Green. He had broken down on the street. "After inserting unleaded in my diesel car I didn't notice the problem till it ground to a halt. You took the wrong fuel from my car and had it working . I was happy as a result of both your call-out time and your charges". Of course we appeared rapidly and flushed the engine after flushing all of the contaminated fuel from the diesel tank.

This was an unsociable time to be awake. It was around sunrise and noone was around. It had been pretty uneventful up to now, and Ray and I were relaxing reading through a couple of old newspapers. It was an uncommon tranquil time in Suffolk. It was in fact that calm that when the telephone finally rang it made me start! The person on the phone explained: "I ended my evening shift and incredibly poured the wrong fuel in a diesel dark blue Audi S8 in error". We instructed him to let us know where exactly he was located and we headed out, getting to him in Base Green not as much as half an hour later. The wrong fuel was cleaned from the vehicle and he said thanks for arriving so fast. As we were going back home we found two young women at the side of the highway who looked like they had a puncture. As a result we stopped to 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.
