The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is certainly an important situation to deal with in a vehicle - specifically in current day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel may result in idling difficulties, irregular running, excessive smoke and, if it's not dealt with properly, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is less complicated to remove as compared with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both circumstances rather swiftly.

Bear in mind though that if ever the vehicle was started with the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted because the old one will be completely water-logged and unusable.

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.
