The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Water contaminated fuel, whether it's unleaded petrol or diesel, is actually a serious situation to address in an automobile - especially in present-day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue inside your fuel may produce idling difficulties, irregular running, increased smoke and, if not dealt with effectively, potentially blown injectors. Water in petrol is easier to drain when compared with water in diesel - largely because diesel is an oil. Even so we are able to solve both circumstances pretty quickly.

Keep in mind however that so long as the vehicle was run on the fuel contaminated with water it will likely require a new fuel filter fitted seeing that the previous one is going to be completely wet and ineffective.

Motorboat Fuel Drains

If it turns out there is the wrong fuel, or even contaminated fuel (most commonly water contamination or old fuel) in a boat we can certainly drain it. Providing the boat is either on land, or moored near enough to a car parking spot we are able to reach the storage and remove the contaminated fuel. We have performed quite a few fuel drains at piers and boatyards in the uk.

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.
