The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is certainly a significant issue to address in a vehicle - particularly in current day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol can certainly result in idling problems, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, potentially broken injectors. Water in petrol is less complicated to clean out as compared to water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to take care of both situations rather quickly.

Be aware though that as long as the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing as the old one will be totally wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If perhaps you have the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly clean it out. Provided that the boat is either dry-docked, or parked close to a motor vehicle parking spot we will be able to gain access to the fuel storage and drain out the fuel. We have undertaken many fuel drains at docks and boatyards throughout the country.

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 VA 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.
