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


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is without question a significant issue to handle in a car - particularly in modern-day common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol may well bring about idling issues, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not addressed properly, oftentimes damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier 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 quite quickly.

You should know however that if ever the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will quite possible need a new fuel filter to be fitted since the old one will likely be completely wet and unusable.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Litton Mill

I'm certainly not overly inclined to doing work on weekends, and a week ago was no different. I'd only just departed the family filled with a tasty dinner made for us by the missus, and I was on the way to sort out a guy who put the wrong fuel in his mom's VW. He was only in Litton Mill so I arrived there soon. As I drove up behind the car and got out he told me "Praise God! I foolishly had my concentration on stuff and did not grasp that I have put diesel in my petrol vehicle. Have I caused some problems as a result of running it?" I determined that truth be told there should not be any damage and that I'd personally get the wrong fuel drained immediately for him. Obviously I drained the contaminated fuel from the car and put in the appropriate fuel, and so another contented client was able to carry on with their journey with no hassle. The man could not stop saying thanks to me, and this can make carrying out work on Sundays in Derbyshire just a small bit easier for me personally!

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:

    • 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.

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.
