The 3 things you NEED to know about petrol in diesel!


Waste Fuel Disposal

Have a fuel tank in the back of your premises containing aged, unusable or contaminated fuel? We can assist you to get rid of it. We have been called out to numerous private and industrial properties in West Sussex for the purpose of draining and recycling fuel storages. We are covered by the Environment Agency to allow us to remove and dispose of waste fuel legally and safely.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or possibly even a few containers in a storage shed, if we can get to it, we can empty it.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's petrol or diesel, can be a significant condition to handle in an automobile - especially in advanced common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol can certainly result in idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not addressed fully, oftentimes blown injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain as compared with water in diesel - this is mostly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we are able to resolve both circumstances quite simply.

You should know that as long as the vehicle was run with the fuel contaminated with water it will likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged 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.
  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.
