The 3 things you HAVE TO know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it is petrol or diesel, tends to be a significant situation to deal with in a motor vehicle - specifically in modern common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in the diesel or petrol can easily lead to idling issues, uneven running, increased smoke and, if it is not remedied correctly, in some cases broken injectors. Water in petrol is a lot easier to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - mostly because diesel is an oil. Even so we can solve both circumstances fairly quickly.

You should know that whenever the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will likely need a new fuel filter to be installed since the previous one will undoubtedly be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Waste Fuel Disposal

Got a fuel tank sitting in the back of your garden full of unwanted, unusable or degraded fuel? We could help you to dispose of it. We've been called out to a number of domestic and industrial premises in County Durham for the purpose of removing and disposing of fuel storages. We are registered by the Environment Agency to enable us to remove and recycle waste fuel legally and safely.

No matter if the fuel storage is a subterranean tank, a portable bowser, or perhaps even some drums in a shed, provided that we can reach it, we can certainly drain 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 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.
