The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Marine Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Assuming that the boat is either on land, or moored close to a car or truck parking bay we can reach the tanks and remove the fuel. We've done numerous fuel drains at docks and boatyards across the country.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely an important matter to take care of in a motor vehicle - especially in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel tank will likely trigger idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not sorted out effectively, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to drain than water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we are able to handle both circumstances fairly swiftly.

Take note that so long as the vehicle has been started with the fuel contaminated with water it will more than likely require a new fuel filter fitted because the old one will probably be thoroughly water-logged and ineffective.

They broken down after inserting petrol into their light blue Nissan Cube, and were about an hour away. I emerged at their car and smirked while I heard to the gal berating her spouse for turning out to be so stupid. "Exactly how could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she told him. I attempted to explain that this problem goes on continuously in Surrey and that it's really nothing at all to stress about, nonetheless he in spite of everything got his ear bent by his missus. Poor lad. In any case, I extracted the polluted fuel, gave the fuel system a flush and gave it some proper fuel.

It had become pretty quiet so far, and Ray and I were loafing around looking through some old articles. That was an uncommon peaceful hour in Surrey. Actually it was indeed that tranquil that when my mobile eventually rang it made me start! The customer explained: "I just completed my night shift and incredibly filled the wrong fuel in a red Fiat Multipla in error". I got him to let us know where exactly the vehicle was situated and we left, ending up in Rowhill no more than an hour later. The incorrect fuel was extracted from the engine.

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.
