The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Boat Fuel Drains

If you find you've got the incorrect fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can help you drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or parked near enough to a car parking spot we are able to gain access to the storage tanks and drain out the contaminated fuel. We've successfully done quite a few fuel drains at docks and boatyards in the uk.

Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally a serious condition to address in a motor vehicle - specifically in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel tank will cause idling problems, lumpy running, excessive smoke and, if it is not taken care of effectively, in some cases damaged injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - this is largely because diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both cases very expediently.

You should know however that any time the vehicle has been run on the water contamination it will probably need a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will be thoroughly water-logged and useless.


Wrong Fuel in Car in BA14 Postcode - Upper Studley Misfueling

What a great night of uninterrupted sleep! 7:30 am on a bright Wednesday and we were on the way to help an old lady who put the wrong fuel in her diesel canary yellow Mitsubishi Lancer in Upper Studley. I had been informed she had left the filling station and stranded along a country lane en route to see her grandchildren. I punched her location into the Satnav and arrived inside an hour. I arrived at the stricken lady and drained the contaminated fuel from the vehicle. While I was doing the drain she told me, "I am getting relatively absent-minded in my senior years and did not remember about the vehicle working with diesel seeing that I had just bought it a couple of days back after my previous car, which I owned for more than twenty years, finally gave up the ghost". I got the job done and she offered me a toffee and said thank you. What a pleasant Wiltshire lady!

Wrong Fuel Assist Upper Studley - Wrong Fuel in Car Upper Studley

I'd had a terrific evening hiking during the weekend and was feeling pleased the next working day as I set off to aid a new couple vacationing in Upper Studley. They conked out after filling petrol into their friend's VW Passat, and were around half an hour's drive away. I got there at their position and smiled to myself while I listened to the girl telling her man off for actually being so silly. "Just how could you even manage to fill the car up by using the wrong fuel?" she asked him. I wanted to explain that this kind of thing comes to pass regularly in Wiltshire and that it's nothing to be anxious about, nevertheless he in spite of everything got an earful. Unfortunate chap. At any rate, I extracted all of the polluted fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. As they drove off I waved farewell and thought about what her indoors would say to me if ever I did the same thing... I'd personally under no circumstances hear the end of it!

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.
