The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, regardless of whether it's unleaded or diesel, is definitely a significant issue to deal with in a car - particularly in present-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in fuel tank will often result in idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not sorted out properly, quite possibly ruined injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to drain compared to water in diesel - this is mostly because diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can resolve both situations pretty easily.

Be aware however that so long as the vehicle has been run with the water contamination it will very likely require a new fuel filter to be installed since the old one will likely be thoroughly water-logged and useless.

Wrong Fuel Assist Portrack - Wrong Fuel in Car Portrack

I'd had a terrific evening cycling on my off day and felt delighted the next working day as I headed out to assist a new family holidaying in Portrack. They'd conked out after adding petrol into their dad's Audi A5, and were approximately an hour away. I got there at their position and smirked to myself while I heard to the woman berating her hubby for turning out to be so confused. "How could you even manage to put the wrong fuel in the car?" she demanded of him. I wanted to clarify that this goes on on a regular basis in County Durham and that it is nothing at all to worry about, however he yet still got an earful by his wife. I felt genuine sympathy for the guy. Anyhow, I cleaned up and removed the contaminated fuel, gave the motor a flush and gave it some appropriate fuel. While they drove away I shouted good bye and wondered what my missus would ask me in the event that I did the very same thing... I'd never 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 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.
