The 3 things you SHOULD know about petrol in diesel!


Water Contamination or AdBlue Contamination

Fuel contaminated with water, irrespective of whether it is unleaded petrol or diesel, is in many cases a serious situation to take care of in a vehicle - specifically in modern day common-rail engines.

Having water or AdBlue in the petrol or diesel may contribute to idling issues, uneven running, excessive smoke and, if not remedied properly, quite possibly blown injectors. Water in petrol is quicker to clean out as compared to water in diesel - largely due to the fact that diesel is an oil. In spite of this we can handle both circumstances rather expediently.

Keep in mind though that whenever the vehicle was started with the water contamination it will most likely require a new fuel filter to be fitted seeing as the old one will likely be thoroughly wet and ineffective.

Boat Fuel Drains

If it turns out you've got the wrong fuel, or contaminated fuel (most typically water contamination or degraded fuel) in a boat we can certainly get it out. As long as the boat is either on land, or secured close to a motor vehicle parking spot we are able to gain access to the storage and remove the fuel. We have completed many fuel drains at marinas and boatyards across the country.

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.
