The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is undoubtedly a serious situation to deal with in a car - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue inside your petrol or diesel may result in idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it's not taken care of properly, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to remove than water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Having said that we are able to deal with both circumstances rather easily.

Keep in mind though that whenever the vehicle has been started on the water contamination it will quite possible require a new fuel filter fitted since the previous one will probably be thoroughly wet and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car Suffolk - Petrol in Diesel Car Dagworth

We not too long ago had a call from a businessman who put the wrong fuel in his compact Toyota Sequoia in Dagworth. He had conked out on the road. "It was terrific how speedy you guys were in having someone out to assist me when I stupidly filled my car with the wrong fuel. Thank you ever so much".

A woman employed in Dagworth contacted us shortly after she tried to get her misfueled automobile to work. She had put unleaded in her diesel light blue Cadillac DTS and, like many people before her, thought that she could just top up the car with diesel and it would run no problem. The car was chugging and then it stopped when she reached the entrance of her office. We quickly went to work on the fuel drain following her call and got it resolved within one hour whilst she was working. She came outside afterwards and thanked us stating, "I'm really pleased you fixed my vehicle."

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.
