The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it is petrol or diesel, is generally a serious situation to address in a car - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your fuel tank will often result in idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if it's not dealt with correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to remove in comparison with water in diesel - this is primarily because diesel is an oil. Even so we can resolve both situations quite expediently.

Bear in mind however that if the vehicle was started on the water contaminated fuel it will most likely need a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the old one is going to be totally wet and ineffective.

Marine Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly help get it out. Providing the boat is either on land, or secured near enough to a car parking spot we are able to reach the fuel tanks and remove the contaminated fuel. We've done quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards nationwide.


Wrong Fuel in Car in SN15 Postcode - Dauntsey Lock Misfueling

What a good night's uninterrupted sleep! 7:00 am on a sunny Sunday and I was on the way to assist an old lady who put the wrong fuel in her diesel grey Hyundai Sonata in Dauntsey Lock. I'd been told she drove away from the filling station forecourt and was broken down on a country road en route to visit her family. I punched her location straight into the Satnav and was on-scene in less than an hour or so. I reached the vehicle and drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. As I was working she told me, "I have been becoming fairly forgetful in my senior years and forgot about the car needing diesel because I'd only just got it a couple of days back after my former one, which I had had for about twenty five years, inevitably stopped working". I completed the job and she gave me a Murray mint and thanked me for my work. What a precious Wiltshire lady!

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.
