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


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is definitely a significant condition to take care of in a car - especially in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in petrol or diesel may well contribute to idling problems, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to get rid of as compared with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both situations pretty simply.

Keep in mind however that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will likely require a new fuel filter to be installed simply because the old one will undoubtedly be totally water-logged and useless.

Wrong Fuel in Car in IP8 Postcode - Sproughton Misfueling

Ahhh, that was a quality night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 am on a warm Sunday and we were on my way to help an older lovely lady who had put contaminated fuel in her diesel husband's Mercedes-Benz SLK55 AMG in Sproughton. I'd been told she drove away from the filling station forecourt and was broken down in a country road on the way to pay a visit to her godchildren. I popped the location straight into the TomTom and got there in less than an hour or so. I reached the location and removed the wrong fuel in the car vehicle. While I was doing the work she said to me, "I have been becoming fairly absent-minded in my old age and did not remember about the car working with diesel seeing that I'd just got it several days back after my former one, which I'd owned for over 30 years, finally died". I finished the job and she gave me a peppermint and said thank you. Such a lovely Suffolk woman!

Wrong Fuel Assist Sproughton - Wrong Fuel in Car Sproughton

I'd had a fantastic day fishing on my afternoon off and felt satisfied the following morning as I headed out to aid a young family holidaying in Sproughton. They'd broken down after putting the wrong fuel in their creamy white Mercedes CL-Class, and the car was about half an hour's drive away. I turned up at their position and laughed as I heard to the lady telling her husband off for being so daft. "How could you actually be able to fill the vehicle up with the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I attempted to explain that this goes on continuously in Suffolk and that it's in reality absolutely nothing to fret about, however he still had an earful. Unlucky lad. Anyway, I cleaned up and removed the wrong fuel, gave the engine a flush and gave them some proper fuel. While watching them drive off I waved hasta la vista and considered what my wife would do to me if perhaps I made the same blunder... I'd never live it down!

Wrong Fuel in Car Suffolk - Petrol in Diesel Car Sproughton

Now I'm not necessarily so enthusiastic about doing the job weekends, and a couple weeks ago was the same. I'd just come away from home filled with a tasty Sunday roast prepared for me by the better half, and I was off to help a guy after he put the wrong petrol in his mint green Saab 9-3. He was only in Sproughton so I was with him soon. Just as I arrived behind the vehicle and got busy draining he said to me "Praise the Lord! I stupidly had my attention on other things and failed to ascertain I have put the wrong fuel in my petrol vehicle. I need to know if I brought about any harm as a result of driving it?" I said that there shouldn't be any damage and that I'd get the contaminated fuel drained right away. Naturally I got the contaminated fuel drained from the car and put in some appropriate fuel, and thus yet another contented motorist had the ability to continue their journey without the need for difficulty. The man could hardly stop thanking me, and that can make operating on weekends in Suffolk a 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 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.
