The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, no matter whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is generally an important matter to deal with in an automobile - particularly in advanced common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in your petrol or diesel can potentially contribute to idling problems, uneven running, increased smoke and, if not addressed effectively, possibly damaged injectors. Having water in petrol is quicker to get rid of compared to water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. Nevertheless we can take care of both situations rather simply.

Keep in mind however that as long as the vehicle was run on the water contaminated fuel it will more than likely need a new fuel filter fitted simply because the old one will likely be totally wet and ineffective.

Wrong Fuel in Car Lancashire - Petrol in Diesel Car Hall Cross

I'm not so interested in carrying out work on weekends, and the other day was no different. I had only just left home after a lovely Sunday roast made by the missus, and I was on my way to help a fellow who had filled the wrong fuel in his light green Audi Cabriolet. He was located in Hall Cross and so I arrived there before long. As I drove up right behind the vehicle and got busy draining he explained to me "Praise the Almighty! I stupidly had my mind on other things and did not realise I've put diesel in my petrol car. Is it likely I brought on problems because of driving it?" I said truth be told there shouldn't be any kind of damage and that I would personally remove the fuel as quickly as possible. It goes without saying that I drained the fuel from the car and put in the correct fuel, and another pleased motorist could carry on with their traveling with no difficulty. He could hardly stop saying thanks to me, and this helps make earning a living on Sundays in Lancashire that little easier for me!

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.
