The 3 things you MUST know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, regardless of whether it is unleaded or diesel, is generally an important matter to deal with in a motor vehicle - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Putting water or AdBlue in your diesel or petrol can certainly produce idling problems, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied correctly, potentially blown injectors. Having water in petrol is a lot easier to remove as compared with water in diesel - this is mainly due to the fact that diesel is an oil. However we can solve both circumstances pretty swiftly.

Be aware that in the event that the vehicle has been run with the water contaminated fuel it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted as the old one is going to be completely wet and ineffective.

Waste Fuel Disposal

We have been called out to several private and industrial properties in Leicestershire to take care of draining and recycling fuel storages.

Irrespective of whether the fuel storage is a subterranean container, a mobile bowser, or perhaps a few drums in a shed, provided that we are able to get to it, we could certainly empty it for you.

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.
