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


Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly remove it. As long as the boat is either on land, or situated near to a motor vehicle parking bay we should be able to reach the storage tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We have successfully done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it is petrol or diesel, is actually a significant condition to handle in a car - specifically in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel will trigger idling difficulties, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, potentially broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared to water in diesel - this is primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Having said that we can handle both cases fairly swiftly.

You should know however that if the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will probably require a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will be thoroughly wet and useless.

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.
