It was after ten pm on a Wednesday and despite the fact that we were assured a rainless afternoon, it had not stopped raining! Brian and me were resting there talking about the golf, at the ready for the next call that day to come in. In due time we had the phone call from a lovely woman on a business expedition who had gone to the Shell petrol station in Lower Quinton and filled the wrong fuel in a diesel light green Citron Zara lease car. She was pretty affected apparently, saying "I cannot believe I have destroyed the car! I'm just so used to filling my petrol car I had did not remember I was driving a diesel!"

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


Motorboat Fuel Drains

In the event that you've got the wrong fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most commonly water contaminated or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. Assuming that the boat is either dry-docked, or situated near to a vehicle parking bay we are able to reach the fuel storage and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've performed many fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it's unleaded or diesel, can be a significant matter to address in an automobile - especially in modern day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol can certainly cause idling problems, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if it is not addressed effectively, oftentimes blown injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to remove than water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to take care of both cases fairly quickly.

Keep in mind however that if the vehicle was run with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter fitted because the previous one will likely be totally wet and unusable.

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.
