The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, irrespective of whether it is petrol or diesel, is without question a serious matter to address in an automobile - specifically in advanced common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in fuel is going to trigger idling difficulties, irregular running, abnormal smoke and, if not addressed correctly, possibly broken injectors. Having water in petrol is easier to drain compared to water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Having said that we can take care of both situations rather quickly.

Bear in mind that if ever the vehicle has been started with the water contaminated fuel it will very likely need a new fuel filter fitted as the old one will probably be completely water-logged and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If you have the incorrect fuel, or perhaps contaminated fuel (most usually water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can help drain it. Provided that the boat is either on land, or situated close to an automobile parking spot we are able to gain access to the fuel storage and remove the fuel. We've done many fuel drains at docks and boatyards nationwide.

Wrong Fuel in Car London - Petrol in Diesel Car Meer Common

We not too long ago had a call about a guy who put the wrong fuel in his bright white Cadillac Catera in Meer Common. He had conked out on the street. "I was pleased at how fast you were in getting a fuel drainer out to aid me after I mistakenly filled my diesel car with petrol. Thank you ever so much". It goes without saying that we arrived punctually and flushed the engine after draining all the unleaded from the diesel tank. When he arrived the fuel drainer said the driver was scowling, but was grinning his face off after the fuel drain.

This was exactly what is called the graveyard shift. It was around 2:30am and almost noone was around. It was rather quiet until now, and Paul and I were relaxing perusing some old articles. It was an uncommon tranquil time in Herefordshire. It was that peaceful that the moment the phone finally rang it made me jump! The motorist on the other end told me: "I ended my evening shift and stupidly filled petrol in my diesel super Saab 9-2X". I instructed him to let us know just where he was situated and we headed out, arriving in Meer Common not as much as an hour or so later. The incorrect fuel was removed from the engine. He said thanks for showing up so quickly. As we were heading back home we found two young women at the edge of the road who seemed like they suffered a flat tyre. As a result we pulled up to help them change it, to their delight.

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 VAT 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.
