The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, whether it's unleaded or diesel, is without question a serious issue to deal with in an automobile - especially in more modern common-rail engines.

Water or AdBlue in the fuel tank can easily result in idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not dealt with correctly, in some cases damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to clean out in comparison with water in diesel - primarily due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we are able to take care of both circumstances quite easily.

You should know though that whenever the vehicle has been started on the fuel contaminated with water it will quite possible require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing that the previous one will probably be totally wet and useless.

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.
